New Animated feature explains Health Care Reform
Confused about how the new health reform law really works? This short, animated movie -- featuring the "YouToons" -- explains the problems with the current health care system, the changes that are happening now, and the big changes coming in 2014. Written and produced by the Kaiser Family Foundation. Narrated by Cokie Roberts, a news commentator for ABC News and NPR.


Right now only available on facebook - but soon on Youtube:

No - the foundation, not the insurance corp.

Both named after Henry J. Kaiser. They have the same relationship that Washington DC and Washington State do.
