Obama letter translation help please!

My friend's dad owns a hotel and needs to send this message to all of his employees about President Obama's Healthcare changes. He would like to translate it into Spanish for his employees that don't speak English. My friend and I tried to translate as best we can, but we want to make sure our translation is accurate. Here is the letter below:

Hotel Employee: Key parts of the Affordable Health Care Act, also known as the health care reform law, go into effect January 1, 2014. When this happens, there will be a new way to buy health insurance: the Health Insurance Marketplace. To assist you as you evaluate options for you and your family, this notice provides some basic information about the Marketplace and our employee –based health coverage available to you. You can research your options available after October 1, 2013 by going to:
www.healthcare.gov Starting January 1, 2014, the health care reform law will require almost all Americans to have health care coverage. Most employers are required to send this notice to employees to raise awareness of the new Marketplace and to help them understand how having access to your employer’s health care plan may limit your eligibility for tax credits in the Marketplace. The attached form will assist you as you review your coverage options. Also attached is a Marketplace Application Checklist if needed.

Here is what my friend and I have done so far: Empleado(a) del Hotel Unas partes claves de Affordable Health Care Act (La Ley de Cuidado de Salud a Bajo Precio), también conocido como la ley de la reforma de la atención médica, empiezan al primero de enero de 2014. Cuando esto sucede, habrá una manera nueva para comprar el seguro de salud, llamado Health Insurance Marketplace. Para ayudarle Ud. evalúar sus opciones y las opciones de su familia, este aviso le proporcionará con la información básica sobre el Marketplace y nuestro seguro de salud que va a ser disponible a Usted. Puede investigar sus opciones que son disponibles después del primero de octubre de 2013 en: www.healthcare.gov Empezar el primero de enero de 2014 la ley de la reforma de la atención médica, requerirá que casi todos los estadounidenses tener la atención médica. La mayoría de los empleadores están obligadas a enviar este aviso a sus empleados para aumentar su conciencia de Marketplace y ayudarles a entender cómo tener el acceso al plan de la atención medica de su empleador puede limitar su elegibilidad para créditos fiscales en el Marketplace.
La forma adjunta ayudarle cómo evaluá sus opciones. También hay el Marketplace Application Checklist (lista de verificación de aplicación) si necesita.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Thanks for moving it to the right spot and thanks, Jon-Dunn, for getting back to me. Still new at this, so I didn't know we weren't supposed to ask translation questions.
