cial and economic in nature, and substantially affects 
interstate commerce, as a result of the effects described 
in paragraph (2). 
(2) EFFECTS ON THE NATIONAL ECONOMY AND 
INTERSTATE
COMMERCE.—The effects described in 
this paragraph are the following: 
(A) The requirement regulates activity that 
is commercial and economic in nature: economic 
and financial decisions about how and when 
health care is paid for, and when health insur-
ance is purchased. 
(B) Health insurance and health care serv-
ices are a significant part of the national econ-
omy. National health spending is projected to in-
crease from $2,500,000,000,000, or 17.6 percent 
of the economy, in 2009 to $4,700,000,000,000 in 
2019. Private health insurance spending is pro-
jected to be $854,000,000,000 in 2009, and pays 
for medical supplies, drugs, and equipment that 
are shipped in interstate commerce. Since most 
health insurance is sold by national or regional 
health insurance companies, health insurance is 
sold in interstate commerce and claims pay-
ments flow through interstate commerce.
