NEW ORLEANS - We will have to wait until next week to see how the U.S. Supreme Court will rule on the constitutionality of President Barack Obama's landmark health care law.

But the part of the law that's in question is the requirement that starting in 2014, Americans must buy health insurance or pay a penalty.
Walter Lane, an associate professor of economics and finance and an expert in health care economics with the University of New Orleans, was in the studio with some perspective on the issue.
