Americans Overestimate How Quickly Help Would Arrive if Health Reform Passes

Almost half (49%) of Americans believe that if health reform passes by the end of this year, people without health insurance will start to get financial assistance by the end of 2010.

Additionally, according to the October 2009 Kaiser Health Tracking Poll, 51% of the public also thinks that by the end of the coming year, health insurance companies will have to begin offering health insurance plans to people with pre-existing health conditions.

In reality, the changes envisioned in the current health reform legislation before Congress will not happen until at least 2013.
