(CNSNews.com) – The
Internal Revenue Service will function as the government’s chief
enforcer for health care reform, should President Obama sign the bill
into law as expected, monitoring both businesses and individuals to
certify whether they have the insurance coverage the government
requires.
The tax collection agency will be responsible for monitoring and
enforcing compliance with the individual and employer insurance
mandates which form the backbone of the Democrats’ hard-won reforms.
...
In order to carry out its new monitoring and enforcement duties, the
Congressional Budget Office estimated that the IRS will need $10
billion in additional funds, funds which were not made available under
the health reform bill.
