I am a doctoral student in health care. I am a nurse practitioner and have been in health care since 1974. Don’t know much about politics however. Would like/need a response to the following. Thanks!

Provided the bill passes the Senate, how soon will the following take effect?
1) Extended health insurance (under parents’ coverage) until age 26?
2) Elimination of 3rd party payer “preexisting conditions” clause?

I am reading/hearing that it is a “given” that the bill will pass in the Senate. Who/what are the main obstacles there?
