Hi, everybody.Over the past year, more than 10 million Americans have gained the financial security and peace of mind that comes with health insurance.
大家好！過去一年里，有超過1000萬人獲得了醫療保險，這一保障為他們帶來了經濟上的安全感和心理上的安定感。
More than seven million people enrolled in affordable coverage by visiting HealthCare.gov, or going to the marketplace in their state.On average, they're paying just 82 a month for coverage.
有700多萬人通過訪問HealthCare.gov網站注冊或者是訪問各州的網上醫保市場獲得平價醫療保障。人們平均每月花82美元就可以獲得相應保障。
For a lot of people, that's less than a cell phone bill or a cable bill.
對多數人而言，這比一個月的手機費或有線電視費都要低。
Insurance companies can no longer deny you coverage just because you have a preexisting condition, and they now have to cover free preventive care like checkups and mammograms.
保險公司也不能因為你的既往病史而拒絕為你投保，他們現在必須提供諸如體檢，透視檢查之類的預防性免費保障項目。
If you missed your chance to get covered last year, here's the good news.Starting November 15th, today, you can go online or call 1-800-318-2596 and get covered for 2015.
如果你去年錯過了參保機會，那么現在好消息到了。從11月15日開始，也就是今天，你可以通過訪問網站，或致電1-800-318-2596投保2015年的醫療保險。
And we've spent the last year improving and upgrading HealthCare.gov, to make it faster and easier to use.
過去一年我們對HealthCare.gov網站進行了大量優化升級，現在訪問速度更快，也更方便。
If you already buy insurance through the online marketplace, now is the time to take a look at some new options for next year.
如果你已經通過網上醫保市場購買了保險，現在你也可以上去看看今年新增的一些項目。
You might be able to save more money, or find a plan that fits your family's needs even better than the one you've got now.
你也許可以節省更多的錢，或者選到比當前已有的計劃更適合你家庭需求的保險計劃。
If you haven't signed up for insurance yet, this is your chance.
如果你還沒有在保險市場注冊，現在就是難得的機會。
Odds are, you'll qualify for tax credits to help you afford it.
更難得的是，購買保險還可以獲得免稅資格，幫你節約支出。
But this window won't stay open forever.
但這一時間窗口不是永久有效的。
You only have three months to shop for plans, so it's worth starting right away.
大家只有三個月的時間來購買自己的保險計劃，所以做好現在就開始。
And it might make a big difference for your family's bottom line.
這將為大家的家庭保障帶來巨大變化。
Last year, I got an email from a woman named Amy Williams, in Augusta, Georgia.
去年，我收到一封信，是喬治亞州奧古斯塔市一位名叫艾米?威廉姆斯的女士寫的。
She and her husband are self-employed in the trucking business.For years, they paid about 1,200 a month for their health insurance.Then they checked out HealthCare.gov.They found a plan with coverage they liked, and it was way less expensive.She says that they've saved around 13,000 on their premiums this year alone.
她和她丈夫是做個體運輸的。多年來，他們每月要為購買醫療保險支出將近1200美元。去年他們在HealthCare.gov網站上算了一筆帳，他們選擇了一份他們中意的保險方案，花的錢卻要少得多。她說，他們今年一年在保險費上就節約了差不多1.3萬美元。
Stories like Amy's are why we fought so hard to pass the Affordable Care Act.To help more families breathe a little easier.In part because this law is working, health care prices have grown at their slowest rate in nearly 50 years.And this year, insurance premiums for families who are covered through an employer grew at a rate tied for the lowest on record.
像艾米家這樣的故事很多，這正是我們千辛萬苦也要通過《平價醫療保險法》的初衷。為了幫助更多家庭減輕壓力，一定程度上，正是有了這部法律的實施，醫療保險的價格增長速度降到了50年來的最低水平。今年，對由雇主購買保險的家庭而言，保險費的增長率是有史以來最低的。
So spread the word.Tell your friends and family members to get covered.Talk to folks in your church or your classroom.Tell them to take a few minutes to check out Healthcare.gov, CuidadoDeSalud.gov, or call 1-800-318-2596-it can make a big difference in their lives.Let them know that it's easy, it's affordable, and that they have just three months, starting today, November 15th, to sign up.Together, we can make sure that even more of America gets covered in the year ahead.
因此，請大家相互轉告，告訴你們的親朋好友參保。告訴教會的教友，學校的同窗，告訴他們花點時間去HealthCare.gov、CuidadoSalud.gov網站上看看，或者致電1-800-318-2596，一定會給他們的生活帶來巨大改變的。讓他們知道，這樣買醫保方便，價格合理，時間僅限三個月，所以今天就開始，11月15日，抓緊時間注冊。最后，讓我們團結起來，讓更多美國人民為未來的一年獲得醫療保險。
Thanks, and have a great weekend.
謝謝大家，祝你們周末愉快。
