In this sentence from a website:
( abcnews.go.com/Politics/obama-announces-insured-health-plans-year/story?id=20888098 )
"Facing growing opposition from his own party, President Obama today proposed a fix to a key component of his signature health care law, allowing Americans who are losing their coverage because of the Affordable Care Act to keep their plans for up to a year before being forced into coverage that meets the new standards."
Assuming that "coverage" (US) = "cover" (UK). Is "being forced into coverage" grammatically wrong, because the sentence makes it sound like it is okay to write "He is in insurance coverage" to mean "He has insurance coverage". Would "being forced into getting coverage" be better?
