Change.
Via: USA Today:
Internal Revenue Service agents already try to catch tax cheats
and moonshiners. Under the proposed health care legislation, they would
get another assignment: checking to see whether Americans have health
insurance.
The legislation would require most Americans to have health
insurance and to prove it on their federal tax returns. Those who
don’t would pay a penalty to the IRS.
That’s one of several key duties the IRS would assume under
the bills that have been approved by the House of Representatives and
Senate and will be merged by negotiators from both chambers.
The agency also would distribute as much as $140 billion a year in
new government subsidies to help small employers and as many as 19
million lower-income people buy coverage.
