Thanks OBAMA!
The Affordable Care Act has doubled the premium on my mid-level PPO plan I have for my family, from $380 per month to $750. I'll have to move to a low-grade, very high deductable HSA plan and I'll loose my prescription drug coverage. All of my elected officials are going to hear from me. Last year it was the privately purchased plans that got hammered. Get ready for the second round now that plans purchased through employers gets bent over. |

I take so little out that I will be getting very little in taxes back at the end of the year anyways, so whatever "refund" I'll get will be minimal, they can have their "fine". |

Are you sure it wasn't your employer who is raising your rate?
The cost of my plan didn't go up this year. (Family plan) |

I was reviewing the premiums and plans for next year. The current plan is no longer available. You could consider it "Cadillac" by the government. The new plan triples the max out of pocket and deductible and it is an HMO. We will be soliciting every company we can think of for pricing. Our downfall? Small family owned business.
FBHO F everyone who voted for this shit. F the FSA Ehh...F all our politicians with a rusty knife. Middle class my ass! |

[#8]
Forgot to add, 40% increase in premium also.
FBHO and the politicians. |

I'm not sure what my plan will be this year, but it might be a little bit better, but that is due to my company picking up a bit more.
My wife's plan has her and the kids in it. It used to be a $250 deductible and all we had were office visit co pays. Now it's a $4k deductible and then 80/20 to $7k max out of pocket and the contributions only went down slightly. This year it's the same plan and the employee contributions went up a little bit more.

His third "punch" sounds like all he wants to do is get criminals on the streets for the racist gun owners to handle and then lock us up .
Zerocare is like gas, prices kept rising to a point where sub $3.00 is big news in my location. We complain and moan but stay complacent to a degree. There is no going back now that the beast is unleashed and the repubes fought way to hard on this platform when nothing could change. Only reason I say that is because we have such an awesome society that they have bought in to health care being a right. Now if libs are so anti-God as evidenced in their booing of The mere mention of God they should want survival of the fittest, but that would kill the uninformed voting base. Amnesty is a way of life for these douche bags. If you take a big enough crap and flush it the bowl will back up, sometimes backfilling the shower, but this time it's with living breathing pieces of crap who bring their third world problems here. |

View Quote I went from $40 a week to $200 starting in November! That is for a single person, the plan is one step away from useless. We (my fiance and I) moved our plans to marry up before the new plan takes effect, she is retired, from the state, so I will take advantage of all the taxes I have paid in to support this rotten state and go with her insurance. The coverage is like the old days of insurance. But I feel your pain bro, Obama has ruined medicine and the middle class, his plan is right on track. |

My company did the same thing last year with PPO and started offering the high deductible HSA, this year is the last year they said the PPO would be available. The premium was so much lower for the hsa, that as long as you contributed to it so you had a slush fund for the deductible, out of pocket wouldn't be much different. Except if you don't use the plan, you keep your hsa money, where you just lost money for paying a higher monthly premium.

If you like your plan....bend over. Cause you're going to lose it and take it with no lube. |

I know it will never happen but it should all be re-set to 0. That goes for pre-existing conditions too. Higher premiums for those folks is what made the old "system" work.
The part of Halfrican Care where you can keep your uterus droppings on your plan till they are 27 particularly galls me. WTF is up with that? The thing of it is the very people this was supposed to help (uninsured working families) has fell flat. The chickens will really come home to roost when the subsidy some have been getting has to be validated with real income reporting instead of that BS honor system. |
