6 potential ways Supreme Court could rule on health care law

1. Supreme Court upholds the law and finds Congress was within its authority to require most people to have health insurance or pay a penalty
2. Supreme Court strikes down the entire law
3. Supreme Court strikes down the individual insurance requirement, but leaves the rest of the Affordable Care Act in place
4. Supreme Court strikes down the mandate, and invalidates the parts of the law that require insurance companies to cover people regardless of medical problems and limit what they can charge older people
5. Supreme Court throws out only the expansion of the Medicaid program
6. Supreme Court decides that the constitutional challenge is premature
