You might want to look into that a little further. As I understand it, Obamacare will not have anything to do with those in retirement. They will be put into Medicare, a program that is losing part of it's funding which will be redeployed to help fund Obamacare. Obamacare is NOT retiree friendly, unless you are in good enough economical shape to buy private insurance, of which the price will quickly escalate.
BTW, I offer a SINCERE wish of good luck with your retirement regardless of how your medical care situation ends up.
