I am a widow with an 19 yr old and a 16 year old. The 19 year old is in secondary school and does not work in town, we have livestock and he helps on my farm. I was told can only apply for his own plan if he is either married or in the […]
Affordable Care Act made my insurance unaffordable.
Insurance Update. As I’ve let everyone know, my family’s BlueCross BlueShield insurance plan that was supposed to be grandfathered under Obamacare ends on 12-31-2015. We met with our Insurance Agent November 4, 2015 and an inferior HSA qualified policy with a 400% higher deductible would cost our family nearly $30,000 (insurance+deductibles) annually out of pocket! […]
Cost and deductibles almost tripled.
My insurance premium costs almost tripled as well as the deductible almost tripled. My choices in plans came down to about 3 due to the fact that either one or none of my doctors were on any of the other plans. I did not want to have to change one or any of my doctors […]
My insurance premiums more than quadrupled!
I resent that I am forced to participate in any of the healthcare exchanges and/or subsidies. I resent that my premium has more than quadrupled since this disaster of a president came into power and the republicans lost their spines and moral centers. I resent that any insurance I participate in now may be paying […]
I’m 59 yrs old, self employed , and cannot save for retirement because of Obamacare.
My healthcare premium just skyrocketed for no apparent reason. Somebody tell me why a healthy person who has never smoked or had any heart or issues with cancer or any other diseases should have the government or the health insurance companies they are in bed with, say my monthly premium should be $855., –of which, […]
We now pay far more for insurance that provides less.
We could elect to spend the same amount in premiums that we paid prior to Obamacare and have catastrophic insurance, but as a health care provider who has spent 22 years tearing up my own body to care for others, this simply is no option.
My huband is retiring only choice of insurance Obama Care
My husband is retiring at the end of the year. When we went to an insurance agent to get medical insurance we were told we have two choice’s either Cobra for 18 months or Obamacare. My husband’s employer will carry our heath insurance until he has retired. We were given plans from Obamacare with deductibles […]
Better Insurance Lower Premium
I went from $500.00 per month premium for $5000.00 deductible under Minnesota Comp to $442.00 premium per month for a $2000.00 deductible and no copay after the deductible is filled with MNSure. MNSure took patience to work through. It isn’t perfect but I have to say Thank You President Obama and Governor Dayton. I am […]
Pushed into Badger Care; The State Wants All Our Info
I was unmarried when my wife and I conceived. In some states, it would have been easier if we were “domestic partners.” We tried to sign up for the Health Exchange for each of us separately. Needless to say, the plan I used to get for $120/month now costs over $300. I’ll pay less with […]
Had to go back to work to get my wife Heathcare Coverage!
I am 73 years old, on Medicare and SS. My wife is 62 years old, Real Estate agent. The RE market is bad, cannot afford to sign up for Healthcare. I was forced to go back to work with a company that has benefits. The point I’m trying to make is that to get my […]
I lost my job and coverage and the plan we have to buy is exorbitant!
This is from the letter I sent to my congressional representative: Subject: Repeal of ObamaCare Dear Congressman Brooks, Health care insurance is something that, thankfully, my family and I have not historically had to worry too much about. Our health care has normally been provided by or heavily subsidized by my employer. However, due essentially […]
Obamacare saved my life.
Before Obamacare, I was very sick but I could barely pay for treatment due to the insurance company I was stuck with. My old insurance company considered it a “preexisting condition” so they refused to pay. With Obamacare, I can easily pay for my medications now, and that’s not the only reason why I am […]
A Hassle to Sign Up but Premiums Sharply Decreased
When MNSure went online in Minnesota, it was plagued with glitches. I was able to register online but unable to select a plan. I tried repeatedly to select a plan but the website wouldn’t let me. I finally called MNSure and was put on hold for about two hours before I gave up. Finally, in […]
choices I can’t make coverage I don’t need
I am loosing my employer based coverage I have had for 38 years because my plan is called substandard . The obamacare plan including the subsidy , or tax that some other poor working person has to pay to support me . Is still so expensive that it is not worth paying for, when I […]
ObamaCare is NOT “Affordable”
Notified by Blue Cross Blue Shield that our current High Deductible Major Medical Plan, for use with HSA, will no longer be available, because it does not meet the requirements of ObamaCare. New comparable plan, that does meet requirements is available with a premium increase of $600/month!!! 🙁 $7200/yr more because of ObamaCare. Affordable Care […]
My plan is gone
My plan is no longer offered, my premiums are up, and I’m going to be paid less because I’m a doctor… Not to mention I have over $100,000 in debt. Thank you Obama.
I’m a healthy 50-yr-old male with no pre-existing conditions
I am self-employed, watch my weight and go to the gym on a regular basis. This week I got a letter from my private insurance carrier specifically attributing my premium increase “due to changes in federal law” and federal coverage requirements that I neither want nor need — such as “women’s health services”, “mental and […]
Headaches, higher premiums, additional administration & implementation costs
I am the benefits administrator for the small business I work for. Our premiums increased by 25% this year. We are a low risk group and generally see increases between 5-10% annually. I was informed by our insurance provider, they can no longer take risk into consideration when calculating premiums (part of the new law). […]
Can’t keep Doc, less coverage, HUGE premium jump :(
I am both an Insurance adviser as well as an insurance consumer. As an adviser, I work for my clients…NOT the insurance companies. This is very conflicting as from a purely selfish standpoint, I stand to benefit with this Forced enrollment and tax payer handouts. (I still get paid on every one of these policies) […]
Decreased my insurance costs
I was able to receive health care at a reasonable cost for the first time in my life. I am a small business owner with one employee. We were not able to have health insurance until this. Looking at the sites, I will easily be able to supply not only myself, but my employee with […]
