The individual elements of healthcare reform are popular, and so is the bill when described in detail.

The most popular provisions of the bill protect against insurance company abuses, expand coverage and make healthcare more affordable. The public supports requiring large and mid-sized businesses to provide health insurance for their employees by nearly a 3-to-1 margin (73%-25%,
CNN). The same is true for expanding Medicaid to the poor (75%-25%, CNN).
Providing subsidies for families that make up to $88,000 a year is favored by a 2-to-1 supermajority (67%-32%, CNN). Additional regulations on insurance companies, such as banning rescission and denial of coverage for those with preexisting conditions are also very popular (60%-39% and
60%-40%, respectively, CNN).
