 Title I. Quality, Affordable Health Care
for All Americans

Shared Responsibility
The Act asks everyone to take responsibility for improving America’s health care. In order to lower costs
for all Americans and extend coverage to people with pre-existing conditions, all Americans who can
afford to purchase insurance will be asked to.

Those who are uninsured add over one thousand dollars to the average premium of families with
insurance. This added cost covers emergency room care for Americans without insurance. To help bring
costs under control for all Americans and cover all Americans with pre-existing conditions, all Americans
who can afford insurance will have the responsibility to purchase it.

 Pros of Title I
Health Insurance Exchanges

Making Coverage and Care More Affordable for Families

The Act will provide the largest tax cut for health care in
American history. Millions of families will receive
hundreds of billions of dollars in tax credits to help them
pay for insurance in the new exchanges. This tax relief
for working families will make insurance more affordable
for those who can’t get it through work or whose
employer insurance is too expensive.
The Act also provides financial assistance to reduce out-
of-pocket costs for moderate and low-income eligible
Americans.

 Pros of Title I
Small Businesses

Tax Relief and Incentives for Small Business Owners

The proposal will also provide tens of billions in tax

credits for small business owners to make insurance
coverage more affordable. Small businesses will also
have a new option of purchasing insurance through the
exchanges. By pooling their resources in the new
insurance marketplace, small business owners will lower
their costs and have the same choices that big
corporations and unions enjoy.
