How your company is watching your waistline:"Employers tried the carrot, then a small stick. Now they are turning to bigger cudgels.
For years they encouraged workers to improve their health and productivity with free screenings, discounted gym memberships and gift cards to lose weight. More recently, a small number charged smokers slightly higher premiums to get them to quit.
Results for these plans were lackluster, and healthcare costs continued to soar. So companies are taking advantage of new rules under President Barack Obama's healthcare overhaul in 2014 to punish smokers and overweight workers."

How Health Care Reform Affects You, Martine Ehrenclou, @Med_Writer:"With some new and rather major changes coming your way with Health Care Reform, it’s a good idea to review some basics about how they will affect you. Some changes are already in place and other major changes will occur starting January 1, 2014.
Roll up your sleeves and dive in.
What Affects You Now
1. Children cannot be denied health insurance because of pre-existing conditions.
2. Young adults up to the age of 26 can stay on their parents’ health insurance plans.
3. Health insurers can no longer cancel your policy if you get sick."http://martineehrenclou.com/2013/10/how-health-care-reform-affects-you/******************************************************
