This should rile some up who think Obama picks and chooses who to screw over

Beginning January 1, 2014, the Affordable Care Act's individual shared responsibility provision requires each individual (including children) to:

.maintain minimum essential health coverage (known as "minimum essential coverage" or "MEC") for each month; or
.qualify for an exemption; or
.make a payment when filing his or her Federal income tax return.

Children and other Federal income tax dependents must have minimum essential coverage or qualify for an exemption for each month in the calendar year. Otherwise, the adult or married couple who can claim the child or other individuals as a dependent for Federal income tax purposes will owe a payment.

All FEHB plans are eligible employer-sponsored plans and provide minimum essential coverage (MEC). Therefore, FEHB plans meet the definition of MEC. In addition, the requirement to maintain MEC is satisfied for individuals covered under FEHB plans through Temporary Continuation of Coverage (TCC) or Spouse equity provisions
