I am a single mom with no help from dad with medical expenses! My premiums have went up over $100 a month and the deductible is expected to go up from $4,150 to over $12,000 for my son and I. How is anyone able to pay these outrageous costs. This is definitely NOT affordable healthcare […]
My doctor was complaining about the amount of paperwork, saying he has so much paperwork to do for Obamacare computer requirements that he didn’t have enough time with his patients. I told him I could tell a difference in his disposition. He is usually all smiles, with gentle, kindness oozing from him. That day, he […]
I lost my full-time job about 15 months ago, but got a part-time job three months later. Yesterday, the manager of the store told me and three other part-timers that he would be cutting our hours going forward, and they changed several full-time employees to part-time. Obamacare – the “gift” that keeps on taking-jobs away, […]
My husband and I live on my income alone. There is no room for Health Insurance. If we get sick well then it’s in Gods Hands. Not anyone else’s. The cost of Insurance is a house payment in my book. We have survived 10 years with out it and we will be fine with out […]
I was one of approximately 500 Medtronic employees laid off in April. These layoffs were made in part to pay the Obamacare medical device excise tax.
Sept 3rd, I received a 1 page notice about my plan rates for 2014 will be going up. The reasons stated were. 1. The cost of health care is going up. 2. There will be more people utilizing the health care system. Oct 6th I received my rate increases for 2014. In my mind, they […]
My job as well as my coworkers’ older than 60 years old were outsourced. I was offered a part time job-10 hours per week– at 1/2 of my salary and no benefits, of course.
I work at CareFusion in San Diego, a medical equipment innovator and manufacturer. We make I.V. pumps and automated medication dispensing equipment for hospitals. We’ve experienced round after round of layoffs due to the Medical Device Tax, which is a tax on the gross sales, not profit. What that means is that our normal 10% […]
I just received notice from my insurance company that I have a grandfathered in plan so my current insurance as is complies with the new law but my premiunm is going up $215.00 per month or $2580.00 per year. I thought this was supposed to be the affordable care act. My plan is not a […]
$240 MORE per year and it ONLY COVERS ONE PERSON instead of 2 as in the past! I move to Medicare. So now we spend more for one and then pay Medicare!! If Medicare costs me $200/month, then we’ll be spending almost… $5000 MORE PER YEAR!!!!
How do they have the gall to call it “Affordable Care Act”, when my no-frills health insurance bill is increasing 349% for the exact same plan!?! Who are the other 3 people I’m paying to insure? Because I’m sure not getting any additional benefits for 3X the cost. #NObama #UNaffordableCareAct
My wife and I are between 60 & 64. We have an individual insurance plan with Blue Cross Blue Shied of NC. We were notified by BCBS that we would not be able to keep our plan because we could not be grandfathered in since we got our plan after March 2010. We signed up […]
We can’t keep the coverage we had (as Obama promised) Our deductible has increased by $6K. No Co-pay for drugs…not covered. Thanks, but no thanks, we’ll pay the fine.
He was doing great, full hours, medical coverage, and a closer to home job. Then in September all of a sudden the workers of the huge company that they worked for suddenly cut off benefits, and reduced hous to below 36 hours. Then my grandson’s hours were cut down to 24 hours a week. He […]
My insurance bill just doubled and my deductible increased. Thanks, Obamacare!
My insurance company sent me a notice that my rates would be going up. What do I get for the esxtra expense? Higher deductible and higher copays. $500 more a year for less coverage doesn’t seem very “affordable” to me!
I’m self-employed and buy my own health insurance. My insurance company just informed me that my monthly premium is now increasing $55 a month and they’ve doubled my out-of-pocket deductible from $3,100 to $6,250 and I have a 30% co-pay to top it off! “Affordable Care Act,” my A$$! Affordable for who? I am so […]
My family has a high deductible individual plan from BSBS that was grandfathered in under Obamacare. While there is no change in our coverage, the cost of our plan increased by over $3,000 thanks to Obamacare. Remember when President Obama promised an average savings of $2500 per year for health insurance premiums? On top of […]
I received a letter from my insurance company informing me that my rates will be increasing because of the Affordable Care Act and Minnesota insurance exchange. Sure enough. While I was paying $181 per month, my new rate is $220 per month and there were unspecified changes made to my coverage that’s going to take […]
