...And why you may not get them

Your employer, however, might escape some of the new Federal rules, at least for a while. Here's how:

• Health plans that are launched or renewed as late as December can wait another year before implementing the changes.
• Firms that self-insure -- that is, pay workers' medical bills themselves and hire an insurer to administer the plan -- can skirt the essential benefits requirement. Many companies with more than 200 workers already self-insure. Now firms with as few as 50 are considering it too, says Thomas Mangan, CEO of United Benefit Advisors.
