Employer sponsored health care here, and my family premium for myself, my wife and my daughter went up 200 for the year. Overall I'm pretty happy with that increase, but I attribute none of that to Obamacare. 10/29/2013 9:06:25 PM |

300% if I want about the same level of coverage through my work plan as I've had in the past
only about 225% if I decide I want my deductible to increase from $1500 to $2500 and my max out of pocket expenses are increasing either way from $3000 to either $5000 or $7000 depending on which plan I pick. In short they are increasing about $700/year. All I can say is thank God I don't smoke... 10/30/2013 8:23:53 AM |

I'm paying about $180 for shitty insurance now.
Looks like plans in new york are around $325 for pretty decent plans that were $500+ when I was looking two years ago.
So im cool with it.

You know, the theory is that it'll be cheaper the more people that register for it.
Because it's new insurance regs.

My current insurance plan has been cancelled. On my new plan, if my family's medical expenses are the exact same for 2014 as they were for 2013, it will cost me an additional $5,187.60 (as a result of increased premiums and deductibles).

So why is he getting away with the promise he made that if you like your plan, you can keep your plan. Why didn't he tell the truth and say "If you like your plan, and it complies with the law, then you can keep your plan"?
Because he had to sell it to the American public, and the absolute truth wouldn't have sold very well. 10/30/2013 5:34:51 PM |

I am curious as to who this really is helping. Everyone I know that was insured prior to ACA is seeing increased premiums, increased deductibles (or both), or have had their policies canceled and given quotes for new plans with higher costs.
I was talking to someone who pays for his family's insurance out of pocket. He said his premiums were increasing from about $300 per month to over $1200 per month for comparable coverage (based on his income I don't think he would be eligible for subsidies).
1967caddyman and I work for the same company so I assume I am in the same predicament though I have not had a chance to check yet since I have been out of town and unable to log into the company portal. 10/30/2013 8:02:31 PM |

Good to know that people are losing their insurance so that some hipster douche's monthly payments can decrease, allowing him to purchase more shitty records for his no name book store.

Here's my question - for all of you folks that are in the individual insurance market, why? Does your employer not offer coverage? Are you still a student...if so, why not go with NC State's insurance? Or have you graduated and are working a part time job and have to buy insurance outside of your employment?
There seems to be an awful lot of you that are in the individual market, and for most folks in a career type job, I would think it would be beneficial to go with your employer sponsored coverage. 10/30/2013 9:37:01 PM |
