My mistake...6 months to cover children with pre-existing conditions on a group plan (3 months for the temp pool for uninsured). Prohibiting rate discrimination means providing coverage at the same rate currently applied to other co-workers (and families)

What the hell is that?

Out of pocket is not what I was referring to. I believe that was actually $5,000. I was talking about the cost of the plan.
The IRS sets annual rates for maximum deductables and out-of-pocket for the purpose of deducting HSA expenses for persons who currently purchase insurance on the open market (rather than through a group plan at work). These same rates will be applied to the temporary pool for adults with pre-existing conditions.

I've offered my best understanding of what all this means. I dont have anything else to add.

Keep trying...and your Congressperson as well.
