How effective will it be?That is an increasingly important question in the <b>United</b><br><img src="http://images2.layoutsparks.com/1/58179/...><br> States.<br> In June 2012, the Supreme Court upheld the legality of the country’s Affordable<br><img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_S6X6w5yvRdg/TP...><br> Care Act, passed by Congress and signed into law by President Barack Obama in 2010. The program mandates private-sector health <b>insurance</b> for all <b>citizens,</b> and provides subsidies for those who <b>otherwise</b> could not <b>afford</b> it.<br> Insurance-plan choices will be available through <b>exchanges,</b> or <b>marketplaces;</b> most people will be able to study plans and <b>sign</b> up for one online.<br> As of December, nearly 20 <b>states</b> have elected to run exchanges themselves; the federal government will run the exchanges in other states. And therein lies a key issue: <b>Creating</b> a consumer-friendly exchange is no easy task. It is hard enough to know what kinds of foods we should <b>eat,</b> which cars to drive, or which apps <b>to</b> use. Selecting an insurance plan <b>is</b> a far more complex decision.“Health insurance is a confusing and difficult <b>choice,â€</b> says <b>Jonathan</b> Gruber, a professor <b>of</b> economics at MIT who specializes in health-care issues. “It’s important that people make decisions in an organized and effective market.<br> In that way they can make the best choices, and we can ensure the best level of competition among insurers.â€Gruber<br> would know: He provided <a href = "http://buyz19.tumblr.com/trademiner">trademiner review </a> that helped shape both the <b>statewide</b> health-care plan that former Gov. Mitt Romney signed into law in <b>Massachusetts,</b> in 2006, and the Affordable Care Act. Gruber has also served on the board overseeing the exchange in Massachusetts — the one state, because of the 2006 law, that already has an online portal up and <b>running.</b> <b>Moreover,</b> as Gruber readily acknowledges, state-run insurance exchanges must pull off a difficult balancing act.<br> The <b>point</b> of markets is to provide competition, but academic research shows <b>that</b> when people are <b>given</b> too many choices, they struggle to select logical options<br><img src="http://ilovedisastermovies.files.wordpre...><br> for themselves.<br> “The tension that exchanges face,†Gruber says, “is [having] enough standardization to make choice and <b>competition</b> work effectively, but not so much standardization that people can’t <b>find</b> the plans that best fit their tastes.<br> That’s absolutely a central tension.†<b>To</b> handle this challenge, policymakers and academic researchers will almost certainly have to collaborate in productive ways.Swamped by insurance choicesIndeed, plenty of research suggests that America’s existing health-care offerings are already too complex. In a 2006 survey by the Kaiser Family Foundation and the Harvard School <b>of</b> Public Health, 73 percent of seniors, 91 percent of pharmacists, and 92 percent of doctors felt that Medicare’s prescription drug plan —<br><img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RF44hDi6pbE/TV...><br> Medicare Part D — was too complicated.Meanwhile,<br> a wealth of studies in behavioral economics suggest that having too much choice is problematic for consumers; <b>one</b> much-cited experiment from 1995, <b>by</b> Columbia<br><img src="http://s1.ibtimes.com/sites/www.ibtimes....><br> University business professor Sheena Iyengar, shows that consumers are far more <b>likely</b> to buy jam at the supermarket when presented with many fewer <b>product</b> choices.<br> Iyengar and economist Emir Kamenica of the University of Chicago have shown that increasing the number of risky 401(k) plan <b>choices</b> available to people leads them to opt for safer plans.<br> In the health-insurance domain, Gruber and Jason Abaluck, an economist at Yale University, published a study in the American Economic Review in 2011 showing that a large number of seniors select Medicare Part D plans that are mismatched to their needs. For one thing, seniors place too much emphasis on lower premiums, as opposed to plans that defray more out-of-pocket costs.<br> Optimal choices, the researchers found, would make these health-insurance plans 27 percent more valuable to seniors.<br> However, seniors were often unable to <b>make</b> apt decisions because, in part, they typically <a href = "http://buyz19.tumblr.com/forex-growth-bo...>forex growth bot </a> than 40 stand-alone<br><img src="http://bridalmusings.com/wp-content/uplo...><br> drug plans to select from.<br> Overall, Gruber and Abaluck concluded, “Consumers would be better off if there were less scope for choosing the wrong plan.â€<br> <b>One</b> solution: Metallic tiersTo combat this problem, <b>the</b> Massachusetts exchange and its online portal, the Health Connector, divide insurance plans into three <b>tiers</b> by cost: gold, silver and bronze.<br> Consumers who know what tier they can afford can then study options at that level before deciding. In this way, the exchange organizes the options and helps winnow the range of choices for consumers to a manageable quantity.

Remove the three identical Phillips screws from the memory door.
Tip for new players - print this guide, then use Sello tape to tape the screws from each step on the picture. Keeps them all organised and easy to know which screws belong to which step when putting it all back together
Thanks a lot for this great advice. I followed it, and it turned out to be very useful and practical.
In regard to the incredible amount of TINY screws, get an Ice Cube Tray or something with AT LEAST 8 compartments, then, when taking out the screws, mark EACH compartment with the step # and how many screws that were taken out, and used for THAT STEP (such as Step # 3 = 4 of 4 screws. Label EACH compartment, and keep them in line of each step. When it comes time to put everything back together, just reverse your Ice Cube Tray, and follow the Steps in Reverse!
As far as marking each compartment, try these POST IT PENS!!!

An ice cube tray is definitely the way to go!
This guide helped me to remove the keyboard on my MBP, but it doesn't take you further to take the keyboard apart. If you REALLY want to look inside the keyboard, you'll need to remove additional phillips screws (10), and carefully remove the inner plastic/clear layers inside the keyboard.
I did this to look for physical damage inside the keyboard and noticed that the black plastic? sheet was torn on my letter 'v', which was one of the keys not working. I did not see any physical sign anywhere else on the keyboard, though.
So, after pulling the defective keyboard away and installing the new one purchased from iFixit, putting everything back together is not too difficult, just reverse.
One thing, though: Check and double-check before you tighten the case screws to make sure your keyboard backlight is working. I noticed I had forgotten to plug it in, luckily for me before I put all the screws on the case.
To avoid losing any screws, print this guide and use clear tape to tape the screws next to the step. Use double-tape to avoid tearing or one of the tiny screws from falling out.
Good luck!
Thanks iFixit for helping me replace my MBP's keyboard!
Worked perfect on my 4,1 mbp. Took ~15 min.
I don't see a boost in speed... or is just me?
I used 500 GB 7200 RPM Seagate SATA Hard Drive model ST9500420AS.
(if has a G letter at the end (ASG) is the one with built in shock protection who conflict sometimes with the mac own G protection).
This guide was awesome. I used JerseyJeepGurl's suggestion and used an egg carton, numbering each cavity as a step in the guide. So for a step that had me remove 3 different kinds of screws, I had a cavity for each, numbered: 1a, 1b, 1c and wrote a,b,c on the guide itself next to each bullet point in the step. It was awesome.
I guess that before starting I overlooked what a T6 torx actually was. I started this process at 8pm and realized right away that I did not have a set that small and of course all stores were closing. Lowes actually had an awesome fine torx driver set for only 7 bucks!
So that you fixit.

Thank you everybody for "thanking me" on the compartment advice! Also, just about ANY Auto parts store will have a set of Torx Screw drivers, in a handy little set, that is all together. Good luck everybody,,remember,TAKE YOUR TIME, BREATH, AND DON'T GET FRUSTRATED!!! (STEALING ADVICE FROM PEARL JAM,,BREATH,JUST BREATH),,,,AND YOU'LL BE ABLE TO DO IT YOURSELF!

I get a piece of "corrugated" cardboard and draw an outline of the laptop and all the "compartments" that are accessed. When you take a screw out simply punch it threw top layer of the cardboard exactly where it goes. Multiple compartments - just draw another diagram on the cardboard. Voila!
I just finished replacing my hard drive following these instructions and they were perfect. The only minor complication involved the ribbon cable connecting to the sleep light and IR sensor connectors. The entire cable was tightly glued to the hard drive. But I got it loose with 10 minutes of gentle prying with a spudger.
To keep track of the screws I just sketched an outline of the bottom panel, taped the screws in the right places and numbered them with the step numbers.
I just used that Glad Press' N Seal. I just cut a 4 in piece, cut slits in it to about half way, Put the screws on there, and fold the pieces over the screws. You can number them, i just kept track of them. Also, you might not need that much, i just cut that much just to be safe.
I use magnet
I use the magnet that close the refigerator door.
The screws are put on the magnet, so it didnot fall from the table.
i am french so sorry for my english

Just another idea for a container for all the little screws: pillbox. I got one for about $1.00 at the store with 14 compartments.

Remove the two 2.8 mm Phillips screws in the battery compartment near the latch.

Remove the following 6 screws:

Four 14.5 mm Phillips screws along the hinge.

Remove the four 3.2 mm Phillips screws on the port side of the computer.
"port side of the computer" should read "starboard side". It's on the right-hand side when the computer is positioned normally in front of you.
Port side as in I/O port side, as in the side that has the FireWire and ethernet ports. This is a MacBook, not a sailboat ;)
Maybe I'm too used to running flight simulators on my Macs. But to us sailors or pilots, it would perhaps be clearer if the instructions mentioned "I/O port side" as Andrew did above.
Honestly, it never crossed my mind that 'port' refered to in/out…

Rotate the computer 90 degrees again and remove the four 3.2 mm Phillips screws from the side of the computer.
In my machine the screw closest to the power connector had a slightly thicker head, and would not sit flush, upon reassembly, unless it was returned to the same hole.

Lift up at the rear of the case and work your fingers along the sides, freeing the case as you go. Once you have freed the sides, you may need to rock the case up and down to free the front of the upper case (there are some hidden plastic clips that need to be clicked off).
I had already done this once and now have a larger SSD to put in and cannot get past this step as the back just will not pop off. In fact- the front comes off fine but the back, where you cannot get the spudger, is "glued" or wedged solid. I suspect that the rear screw tabs have jammed. :(
I would not rock the case up and back. There are 4 plastic connectors that need to come loose, start on the left side with a spudger about a quarter of the distance from the edge and pop them up from left to right, one by one.

Disconnect the trackpad and keyboard ribbon cable from the logic board, removing tape as necessary.

Remove the upper case.
Kudos for this fantastic walk-through of replacing the hard drive. I just swapped in a new SSD and it was a piece of cake!
On Step 10, I tried just propping up the keyboard and leaving it connected to the logic board. It worked for a while but eventually the ribbon popped off. Luckily it wasn't damaged and it's super easy to replace.
Same happened to me. No damage here either. :-)
Since there is the ONE cable going from the top keyboard/touchpad assembly to the motherboard, you need to be careful lifting it up and removing it.
Start at the front of the laptop, using a spudger to widen the gap so you can see inside where the ribbon cable attaches.
When re-assembling, use a couple of spudgers to prop up the keyboard/touchpad assembly and hold it in place. Re-connect the cable, then starting from the rear, lower the assembly into place.

One 4.7 mm silver T6 Torx screw from the top left corner of the drive
-
One 6.2 mm black Phillips screw at the top right corner of the drive.
Regarding the following instruction: -
Two 3.3 mm silver Phillips screws on either side of the SuperDrive.
Be aware there are two of these on the bottom (if the slot is facing you) screws close to each other, one is for the actual drive assembly itself and the other is attaching the drive to the Mac. Beware you choose the correct one.

Great Guide! Thanks! Got the weakened BIOS/PRAM changed, without having to touch the m/b at all, very fine!
Years ago, I had to return/replace this type of a battery several times because of erratic behavior in the laptop. Suddenly I had one that lasted for 5 years before not taking any charge anymore. So, I'm going to order a new one hopefully without having to restart the return charade BECAUSE:
I observed that the battery's CONTACTs are unreliably INTERMITTENT. So far, it helped for a while moving it in and out in order to chafe the contacts' surfaces against each other.
