High court upholds most disputed part of health care law
The court rules most Americans must have health insurance or pay a penalty deemed a tax, allowing government power to impose it. It limits Medicaid expansion to the poor as a joint federal state effort, prohibiting withholding a state's entire Medicaid allotment for nonparticipation. Chief Justice Roberts joins four liberals in a 5-4 majority. The decision shapes the signature legislative achievement amid Romney election contrasts and future GOP plans to repeal.

Post election health care law rolls out next steps
After the November election analysis notes the 2010 health care law advancing its phased effects. More than 90 percent of eligible Americans will gain coverage. Provisions include young adults staying on parental plans to age 26, bans on denying coverage for children with preexisting conditions, lifetime payout limits removal, and elimination of co payments for preventive care across ages.
Health law reforms expand coverage and subsidies
Starting in 2014 most citizens must have insurance or pay a penalty. Subsidies assist those unable to afford coverage while new markets help individuals and small businesses obtain affordable plans. Medicaid expands for more low income people and insurers cannot deny coverage or charge higher rates for medical problems or for women. Employers face penalties if they do not offer coverage.
