(8) Until enactment of the law, the Federal 
Government has not sought to impose specific cov-
erage or care requirements that infringe on the 
rights of conscience of insurers, purchasers of insur-
ance, plan sponsors, beneficiaries, and other stake-
holders, such as individual or institutional health 
care providers. The law creates a new nationwide re-
quirement for health plans to cover ‘‘essential health 
benefits’’ and ‘‘preventive services’’, but does not 
allow stakeholders to opt out of covering items or 
services to which they have a religious or moral ob-
jection, in violation of the Religious Freedom Res-
toration Act (Public Law 103–141). By creating new 
barriers to health insurance and causing the loss of 
existing insurance arrangements, these inflexible 
mandates jeopardize the ability of institutions and 
individuals to exercise their rights of conscience and 
their ability to freely participate in the health insur-
ance and health care marketplace. 
(9) The law expands Government control over 
health care, adds trillions of dollars to existing liabil-
ities, drives costs up even further, and too often puts 
Federal bureaucrats, instead of doctors and patients, 
in charge of health care decisionmaking.
