Major issues on voters' minds was obamacare so how did it factor in the polls and what does president Obama's reelection mean now.

For the future of health care in America.

That we have it and it's called Obama care that I just into the segment Betsy -- -- -- she's a former lieutenant governor of New York she's also the author of decoding Obama.

Health care and actually read the whole bill hasn't -- Unfortunately it's a lot now.

And that's gonna roll out.

As written because of the election results last night so for example.

For the first time in history the government will be in control of your care.

Even if you have a private health plan you've paid for yourself under section thirteen eleven the government dictates how doctors treat even privately insured patients.

Number two.

Seniors can expect less care because over half of this gigantic flaw it's paid for with cuts to Medicare.

So for example hospitals will have 247 billion dollars less money in this decade.

To care for the same number of seniors they're already spreading nurses -- starting to lay off nurses that's why there's a nursing strike going on in California right now.

And it will mean.

A harder time for elderly patients who are struggling to survive their hospital stay.

I'm sorry and 2014 I'm not going to be offering health insurance -- -- the line you have young taking the fine or I'm pushing you down to part time status one -- the other.

So you can have to go to the health insurance exchange in your state or you may be pushed on to Medicaid if you're a low paid employees such as a retail sales person.

Bomb or a bus -- somebody starting out in life.

And number five.

Women kind of got bamboozled in this election so much about what's about contraception but nothing in this gigantic law.

And guarantees access to contraception.

What your health plan covers is totally up to the president's appointees so this occupant of the White House says cover contraception.

And the next occupant of the White House -- -- just the opposite interest no contraception.

-- So those -- the top five things and changed many more points and there which will continue to talk about as we move forward now with the full implementation.

Of Obama care Betsy McCoy you know it through through thanks so much --
