The State of Georgia has passed a bill to encourage insurance companies to offer cheap, affordable, and limited health insurance plans. The bill passed by Georgia’s Senate will give insurance companies an opportunity offer health insurance to Georgians who are unable to afford a comprehensive plan. The republican proposal passed 42-12 in the House. Now, individuals searching for affordable Georgia health insurance can pick a plan based on what they can afford. Although the coverage will be limited, the limited coverage is still better than no coverage at all. 

            Democrats who apposed the plan are worried that individuals who obtain the limited plans will not truly understand the coverage of the plan and will only make their decision to purchase based solely on price. Democrats predict that the future of this plan is flawed because its popularity may grow tremendously in the future but coverage will not be sufficient for most.
