Re: Interim Final Rule for Group Health Plans and Health Insurance Coverage Relating to StcltuS 

as a Grandfathered Health Plan Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act 

As a consumer I wish to take this opportunity to formally comment ,)n 

the interim final rule regarding health plans and "grandfather" status (Document 10 IRS-2010­

0010-0001). 

I believe the consumer protections included as part of the new health care law are vitally 

important and should be extended to as many people as possible. Accordingly, every effort 

should be made to increase the number of individuals covered by the Patient Protection and 

Affordable Care Act (PPACA) via the above regulations. The triggers or conditions that would 

extend these protections to consumers under currently existing "grandfathered" plans shouhj not 

be weakened or reduced in any way. I specifically support the position and detailed comments
