No insurance regulator would bless an 18% increase across the board for any group merely because some members might be adding a college student to their policies
i'm sorry charlie, i don't think they are related....mainly because insurers have had double digit increases for a decade or more....BEFORE health care reform passed....at least in my state.
anthem requested a near 20% increase in prices in 2009, our insurance general rejected their request, and held them to an 11% increase, then anthem blue cross blue shield sued the state...
ALL BEFORE obamacare.

Hey I'm not denying that Insurance companies would raise rates regardless.
However that does not change the fact that the mandate to cover preexisting conditions, Lifting the life time cap, and allowing parents to keep kids on their plans till 26 will indeed dramatically increase their costs.
If you do not believe that, you do not understand how insurance works at all.

oh, i believe some things may cost them more HOWEVER I also believe the added 30-40 million people, primarily the healthy and young who felt they did not need a full coverage plan, will MORE than compensate...
ALSO obamacare has not been instituted yet, so those mandates that could cost them, have NOT come in to effect yet....soooo, to me, IF they are claiming it is obama care that is causing their rate hikes, it's a downright LIE on their part.
I got mine. No change.
also, Anthem said they NEEDED the young and healthy to be part of the insurance pool to REDUCE prices for all...
in obamacare, they got JUST THAT....30 million of healthy, mandated, young folk

do you have a link to the fact that 30 million healthy young folk were mandated? That's something I was totally unaware of! TIA.

40-50 million will be added to the healthcare roll who did not have insurance previously....
all the elderly sick are already on medicare so they are not part of the additional mandated coverage.
the objection to the mandate CAME from the young and healthy, who did not feel they needed insurance, but are being forced to buy it....
in the link i posted ANTHEM Blue cross blue shield SAID they needed these people to buy insurance so THEY could reduce their risk....
We have and along with it we were informed that because of the new Obamcare bill we will see an increase in our policy rates jump anywhere from 16% to 18%. Not only will our monthly premiums sky rocket but our co pay will jump from $35 per visit to $50.
So the lies from the democrats were just that, BIG OLE STINKING PILE OF SHIT LIES.

now I am confused when this crap was rammed down our throats we were told that 30 million were un insured, now it 40 or 50 million and 30 million of them are young and healthy? do I understand you right? Is this offical government stuff? do you have a link?
