It may not give you financial subsidies, but yes, you both get all the consumer protection benefits: no lifetime cap, no kicking you off when you get sick, etc.

And, in 2014 when the state exchanges are up, you'll have other options for purchasing competitively-priced health care from competitive providers

Just "wow" on the nonsense you have to put up with, tax-wise, with your household. That needs to be fixed, too.

You got a discount for having your ACL done with insurance. That's great. My insurance company approved payment for my operation to the hospital, then 6 months later decided not to pay. I had to pay "full price", no discounts, out of pocket. That practice is now illegal with the ACA. For you and I, and your partner. Thank god.
