Revealed: 74% of Obamacare 'Enrollees' Already Had Insurance
11 May 2014,
A devastating new McKinsey & Co. report finds that Obamacare's purported purpose – providing coverage for the previously uninsured – has failed.
The report concludes that 74% of Obamacare enrollees at the end of the first open enrollment period already had insurance; just 26% reported being previously uninsured. Of those who were previously uninsured, the figure drops to only 22% when considered alongside whether the individual has activated his plan by paying his first month's premium.
According to the Associated Press, at least 4.7 million Americans had their health insurance plans canceled due to Obamacare. Many of those individuals simply went through the Obamacare exchanges to buy policies to replace the ones President Barack Obama's healthcare program outlawed.
Yup. I already had insurance. But for some reason it wasn't good enough for ass in chief.

Did you get your new insurance by shopping in the exchanges? If so was it cheaper and better?

The board notes your attempt to change the subject. Obama promised 50 million uninsured would get insurance and now we find out it's only 2 mill. Address that please.

I didn't try to change the topic. I asked him a question because he's one of the people forced out of his insurance.
Let's take a look at the numbers.
It looks very top heavy for the older sicker population. And of those below 45 years, how many are in Medicaid
and therefore not paying participants. And it was stated by the administration that they need 35% to be in the
age group below 35 years and that looks skimpy to say the least, particularly considering that Medicaid demo.

Yup - if you're 50+ and poor, obamacare is a good deal and those people grabbed it. It's a poor deal for the young and so they skipped out. People acted in their self interest and it appears stupid obama didn't see that coming.
Insurance, by itself, is a scam (in my opinion). We all see the endless commercials like Geico, Metropolitan Life, Allstate, State Farm, Esurance, etc. etc. Not only are they able to afford these endless, expensive, prime-time commercials but they're able to afford huge, sprawling skyscrapers.
The scam got even bigger when the government FORCED everyone to buy insurance -- or else.

Until about 60 years ago most americans did NOT have health insurance and we got by just fine and healthcare was much cheaper.
With health insurance people go to doctors for every little thing and they don't care much about the cost.
1/4th of 8 million is just 2 million. In 2010 obozo said obamacare would see to it that our 50 million uninsured got insurance!! What a huge failure.

Revealed: 74% of Obamacare 'Enrollees' Already Had Insurance
11 May 2014,
A devastating new McKinsey & Co. report finds that Obamacare's purported purpose providing coverage for the previously uninsured has failed.
The report concludes that 74% of Obamacare enrollees at the end of the first open enrollment period already had insurance; just 26% reported being previously uninsured. Of those who were previously uninsured, the figure drops to only 22% when considered alongside whether the individual has activated his plan by paying his first month's premium.
According to the Associated Press, at least 4.7 million Americans had their health insurance plans canceled due to Obamacare. Many of those individuals simply went through the Obamacare exchanges to buy policies to replace the ones President Barack Obama's healthcare program outlawed.
After nearly two weeks of widespread queries and criticisms, McKinsey & Company, the management consulting firm, posted on Monday the questionnaire and methodology of an online survey it had released that was denounced by the White House and others for contending that nearly a third of employers would definitely or probably drop coverage for employees when provisions of the health care law took effect in 2014.
The White House responded on Monday night. As we learn more, its become clear that this one flawed study from McKinsey is truly an outlier, Nancy-Ann DeParle, an assistant to the president and deputy chief of staff, said in a blog post.
The White House initially pointed to forecasts by the Congressional Budget Office and other experts whose estimates were much smaller in terms of whether employees would lose some or all coverage. For example, an Urban Institute study to be released on Tuesday suggests that employees in small businesses may receive more coverage, not less.
McKinsey also came under fire for not providing access to the surveys authors, and for not publishing the questions, the types of employers taking part or the survey methodology.
In posting details regarding the survey on its Web site Monday, McKinsey acknowledged that its survey was not comparable to the studies by the budget office, Urban Institute or others using economic modeling.
Rather, it surveyed business owners using an online panel. McKinsey said it paid for the survey by Ipsos, a French marketing firm, to capture the attitudes of employers, large and small.
In addition, McKinsey seemed to be trying to address the criticisms by the White House and others, asserting that its report was not intended to be predictive.
McKinseys explanations did not satisfy Senator Max Baucus, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, and several from the House who have inquired.
This report is filled with cherry-picked facts and slanted questions, he said in a statement. It did not provide employers with enough information for them to make honest choices and fair evaluations. Rather than correct the major deficiencies in their report, McKinsey has chosen to again stand by their faulty analysis and misguided conclusions.
