THOSE DAMN FACTS

It must be those dastardly tea baggers sabotaging the Savior’s glorious, well conceived, well executed, cost saving, life saving healthcare plan for America. Of course a 2,400 page law written by healthcare industry lobbyists, with 11,000 pages of rules and regulations, managed by thousands of government drones, enforced by the IRS, impacting 19% of the U.S. economy, and rolled out on a computer system that doesn’t work, was sure to improve the lives of all Americans. More government in our lives is exactly what we need. Now please bend over and await your Obamacare rectal exam. The $2,500 savings check is in the mail. But be warned, we are depending on another government organization losing $19 billion per year to deliver that check, so it might be awhile.  

…Individuals in most states will end up spending more on the exchanges. It is true that in some states, the experience could be the opposite. This is because those states had already over-regulated insurance markets that led to sharply higher premiums through adverse selection, as is the case of New York. Many states, however, double or nearly triple premiums for young adults. Arizona, Arkansas, Georgia, Kansas, and Vermont see some of the largest increases in premiums.

…The Obama Administration is desperate for younger people to enroll to prevent an adverse selection death spiral.

…Our findings confirm that younger populations see larger percentage increases in premiums. A state that exhibits this clearly is Vermont, where the increase for 27-year-olds is 144 percent and the increase for 50-year-olds is still 60 percent, but far less. All states exhibit this relationship.

Heritage Foundation

 

“If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor. Period. If you like your health-care plan, you will be able to keep your health-care plan. Period. No one will take it away. No matter what.”

“For people with insurance, the only impact of the health-care law is that their insurance is stronger, better, and more secure than it was before. Full stop. That’s it. They don’t have to worry about anything else.”

“If you already have health insurance, the only thing that will change for you under this plan is the amount of money you will spend on premiums. That will be less.”

“I want to be very clear: I will not sign on to any health plan that adds to our deficits over the next decade.”

“Health care reform will cut the cost of a typical family’s premium by up to $2,500 a year.”

It seems the longer the Obamacare fiascso goes on, the worse it gets. Doctors simply won’t accept exchange-purchased insurance. You’ll have to see an ObamaDoctor, of which there are few, if any.

And for the privilege of having worthless, unusable insurance, you’ll pay a fortune. And be shelling out thousands of dollars more for deductibles before you’ll even be able to start fighting the insurance companies for denial of service and non-payment of your healthcare.

The health insurance companies and lawyers wrote Obamacare. The government created the website. The health insurance companies are licking their chops, all those massive premium increases listed above, and they not having to pay any claims or reimbursement, because they can blame the bureaucrats. Too bad for them, nothing works. Serves them right. But hey, at least the union government drones have insurance, and 1200 companies and unions.

Overall I can see a lot of people, especially the young preferring to pay the fines than get obamacare.

Here’s the thing, it’s already expensive and the Demoncrats just jacked it out of sight with insane deductible levels that really don’t make it that attractive.

The health insurance companies wrote Obamacare, and everyone’s shocked their premiums are doubling or tripling? Hilarious.

And don’t forget, Obamacare is the biggest tax increase in the history of this country. And lawyers somehow managed to get in on Obamacare, rolling back 30 years of medical tort reform. Obama has set race relations back 50 years, and has set med-mal and healthcare back 30 years.

Obama and the government will simply spend more and grow Obamacare ad infinitum, and double or triple the rules, regulations and taxes to “fix” it.

And this is what will happen to Cynics, un-believers, opponents, and detractors of Obamacare

Take a closer look at that chart

The only state with significant drops in premiums is Colorado.

Colorado is the least Obese state in the union. The most obese states are seeing double or triple digit increases in premiums. You are paying for fatties.

I have to go to the exchange to apply for subside to be able to keep my Blue Cross that I have now. I can’t get grand fathered because I haven’t had this policy 5 years which even though the policy itself has been grand fathered .

If I claim 12,000 income for next year I will pay only 2% of that or 240 for the year. I’m a little bit suspicious of your claim that I won’t be able to see a Doctor with my existing policy.

People have, for decades, mistakenly believed having “health insurance” is the same as “getting healthcare”, that somehow magically having health insurance you will be “covered” if you get sick or have to have surgery, a heart attack. Idiot people who don’t understand this difference will pay almost anything for this illusion. More than 600,000 people a year declare bankruptcy because of medical bills; yet 73% of them HAD HEALTH INSURANCE. Health insurance is the biggest scam in history, just behind social security.

With Obamacare and the exchanges, health insurance companies have unlimited clout to charge whatever they want, quintuple deductibles, and deny any and all care to the insured.

And people like you who demand other people pay and subsidize their healthcare. Doctors aren’t going to take “exchange insurance”, especially specialists. Exchange insurance is more worthless than Medicaid, and costs a fortune. Obamacare is designed to give people “health insurance” while not paying a dime for actual “healthcare”. You’ll be paying that out of your own pocket after fighting for months with the government or the HMO, to collect on your policy. The only thing I can say is don’t get sick.

Mark, you’ll pay in premiums, maybe, I wouldn’t count those chickens quite yet. Low income and I assume a part time worker and young, you are going to be the golden goose that they will come after when the premiums have to be increased – again and again. Which is EXACTLY what has been happening to small biz coverage for well over 15 years.

And, you’ll be responsible for up to 100% of your medical expenses until you meet the deductible, which if you are young and healthy won’t mean much, but it will to the pill poppers and fat asses amongst us. Or if you get hurt, or severely ill.

There is no free lunch sweetie, good luck with your mental health when the truth hits you and you get to reconcile reality with hopes, dreams and political promises.

BTW, in my lifetime I’ve been promised that I’d never be pulled over for failure to wear a seatbelt, nor would I ever be subjected to being pulled over because it is late at night, nor would I ever have to inject toxins into my child against my informed opinion and wishes.

Yet all those things are now true. Keep it in mind as the bills for your (currently) great deal become apparent, and due.

I would rather have just kept on with a cost similar to today with a high deductible policy that will protect some of my assets in case catastrophe. Should the government come back and say no no. And I lose the subside. I will be done with this ass rape after next year.

Don’t know what else to do? Hopefully, they’ll postpone for a year and my rates will stay the same as this year.

When did the rascally replublican’s ever seriously attempt to find a solution? Lord know’s they had plenty of time to do it before the voters gave up on them.

Obamacare woes widen as insurers get wrong data

By Christopher Weaver and Louise Radnofsky

Insurers say the federal health-care marketplace is generating flawed data that is straining their ability to handle even the trickle of enrollees who have gotten through so far, in a sign that technological problems extend further than the website traffic and software issues already identified.

Emerging errors include duplicate enrollments, spouses reported as children, missing data fields and suspect eligibility determinations, say executives at more than a dozen health plans. Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Nebraska said it had to hire temporary workers to contact new customers directly to resolve inaccuracies in submissions. Medical Mutual of Ohio said one customer had successfully signed up for three of its plans

The flaws could do lasting damage to the law if customers are deterred from signing up or mistakenly believe they have obtained coverage.

“The longer this takes to resolve . . . the harder it will be to get people to [come back and] sign up,” said Aetna Inc. AET -0.04% Chief Executive Mark Bertolini. “It’s not off to a great start,” he said, though he believes the marketplaces are “here to stay.”

Premiums for young healthy people will jump in 45 states under Obamacare

By JOEL GEHRKE | OCTOBER 19

Young people in 45 states will see their health insurance premiums increase under Obamacare because the law relies on the money they pay into the system to offset the cost of caring for older enrollees, according to a new study.

Virginia leads the pack, as individuals aged 27 and under will see their health insurance premiums jump by 252.5 percent — $416.55 — according to the Heritage Foundation’s Center for Data Analysis.

Virginians under the age of 50 will see their premiums jump by an even greater percentage, rising from $228 to $991.03.

bb,

I stumbled across this website by accident the other day. The article says that a religious organization lobbied out of O’Care and they have (and offer) their own healthcare service – Samaritan Ministries. I think this healthcare is available to anyone “of faith”, which includes Injuns, Christians, Jews, everybody. I think you will find also that the good Lord is flexible on the subject of “faith”.

It might be bogus, but here is the website if you want to read about it and possibly contact them:

JPMorgan Said to Have Reached $13 Billion U.S. Accord
By Tom Schoenberg & Dawn Kopecki – Oct 19, 201

JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) has reached a tentative resolution of all civil mortgage-bond related matters with the U.S. Department of Justice under which the nation’s largest bank will pay a record $13 billion, a person familiar with the settlement talks said.

The amount increased from $11 billion during negotiations last night, the person said. The deal includes $4 billion for unspecified consumer relief and $9 billion in fines and other payments, another person familiar with the matter said. The $9 billion includes a $4 billion accord with the Federal Housing Finance Agency over the bank’s sale of mortgage-backed securities.

Two weeks into health insurance marketplace, companies in holding pattern

October 15, 2013 5:30 pm • By Hannah Johnson

It’s been two weeks since the health insurance marketplaces — the way to shop for insurance from the Affordable Care Act — went live Oct. 1, and health care companies are mostly just waiting.

The federal website healthcare.gov, which is running the marketplace for 19 states including North Dakota, has been criticized for technical glitches and bugs since its debut.

There are three companies providing health insurance plans for North Dakota residents — Blue Cross Blue Shield, Medica and Sanford Health Plan.

As of now, Blue Cross Blue Shield has only received a couple of enrollments from the marketplace, said J.D. Nichol, the manager of consumer sales.

Greg Bury, a spokesman for Medica, said his company hasn’t received any.

They are not worried, however, Bury said. It’s only been a short time and the delays are not yet concerning. There is still enough time for people to be enrolled, he said.

This sentiment was echoed by Emily Bormann, a spokeswoman for Sanford Health. The Sanford Health Plan has not yet received any enrollments from North Dakota, she said, but it’s still early.

Nichol said he has been advising consumers to wait until Nov. 1 to try enrolling through healthcare.gov. Hopefully by that time, the technical issues will be worked out, he said.

Individuals who qualify for insurance through the marketplace — mainly those who are not offered insurance through their employer and who do not qualify for Medicaid or Medicare — have until Dec. 15 to enroll in order to have insurance coverage by Jan. 1, 2014.

After that, the open enrollment period extends through March 2014. If a person enrolls by the 15th of the month, coverage will begin the first of the next month. If a person enrolls after the 15th, the coverage will begin the month after next.

Anyone who does not have health insurance by 2014 will have to pay a penalty, $95 per adult for the first year. The penalties go up exponentially the next two years and by 2016 and after, the penalty will be $685 per adult.

My Mother in law was near tears today. She got a letter from the State of Texas today explaining that Medicare plans will change and what parts are no longer covered. Also due to the increased costs SS check amounts will be reduced by nearly $500 between her and my father in law. No mention was made of Obamacare but I’m sure it is the reason for these changes. I plan to see them tomorrow and read the notice myself. They may have something mixed up especially on the SS reductions. Anybody hear about anything like this going on?

My father in law is ready to go to war over this. If what they say turns out to be accurate and affects numerous SS recipients there will be a huge, loud and unrelenting backlash. The torches and pitch forks will roll out. Even if they’re old the seniors probably have more balls than the middle aged and young people and not near as much of their lives to lose.

Something like this could lead to the end of Obamacare and the Democrats being parted from their heads. What a great thing that would be. So there could be a silver lining to the cloud. But it also might mean the Republicans completely taking over government, Then we will get it in the ass with a red spiked pole instead of a blue one.

Hundreds of thousands get health insurance cancellation notices

Anna Gorman and Julie Appleby Kaiser Health News
Oct. 18, 2013 at 2:55 PM ET

Health plans are sending hundreds of thousands of cancellation letters to people who buy their own coverage, frustrating some consumers who want to keep what they have and forcing others to buy more costly policies.

The main reason insurers offer is that the policies fall short of what the Affordable Care Act requires starting Jan. 1. Most are ending policies sold after the law passed in March 2010. At least a few are canceling plans sold to people with pre-existing medical conditions.
