Poll: Most Americans disapprove of ObamaCare

[Mac1958]

Health coverage, delivery and payment are complicated concepts. Very, very complicated. Even in single payer.

If more Americans were educated on the mechanics involved, they would not care for the ACA, single payer, or whatever the hell the GOP is pushing.

There are systems already in place and operating well that combine the best of public and private, but they don't fit on a bumper sticker.

So here we are. Enjoy.

The people who get it free are naturally happy, those who must pay out the ass are not happy as their premiums have risen, the co- pay has risen and their deductibles have skyrocketed. Now, guess which group old the lig is in?

Little by little Americans are becoming fed up with the pitfalls of Obamacare.

More Americans disapprove than approve of the Affordable Care Act, according to a new Pew Research Center national survey.

The poll found that 44 percent of respondents approve of the health care law, and 54 percent disapprove.

The disapproval rating has gone up since the Supreme Court's ruling last July upholding a section of the law that allows the federal government to provide insurance subsidies through federal exchanges.

After the ruling, 48 percent approved and 49 percent disapproved of the law.

According to the poll, 44 percent of respondents say that law has had a mostly negative impact on the country, while 39 percent say it has been mostly positive. About 13 percent say the law has not had much of an effect on the country.

In December 2013, far more people saw the law as negative for the country: At the time, 49 percent saw its impact as largely negative while just 23 percent said it had a positive effect on the country.

The percentage of Democrats and Independents who think the law has had a positive impact on the country has risen, according to the poll. About 66 percent of Democrats said the law has had a positive impact on the nation, compared to just 42 percent in 2013.

There has been little shift in Republicans' views about ObamaCare's impact, with just 10 percent saying the law has had a positive effect, little changed since 2013.

The survey was conducted from April 12-19 among 2,008 adults and has an overall margin of error of 2.5 percentage points.

Poll: Most Americans disapprove of ObamaCare

Why not help fix it rather than just complain about it?

Not a bad idea, but I suspect it is so bad that it can't be fixed. Secondly, you are assuming a terribly corrupt, ineffective, and a criminal enterprise like the federal government, can fix ANYTHING.

Are you on social security ?

No and how does this apply to our conversation?

Of the 50% who disapprove, about 50% of that want to keep ACA but improve it.

So about 70% either approve it or want it improved.

Tell the whole story, please.

Obamacare was designed to fail. Improvement isn't going to happen.

They did not approve of it when it was passed either.

Nor will they need the approval of the public when the "fix" it even more.

I can hardly wait.

So would a Trump white house get rid of it ?

She Oversaw Obamacare's Implementation. Now She Has a Chilling Forecast Regarding Its Future.

Marilyn Tavenner, the former head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, has some harsh criticism of the program she once helped get off the ground.

On paper, the Affordable Care Act, which you probably know better as Obamacare, looks to be chugging right along in spite of naysayers. By the end of the 2016 enrollment period, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, about 12.7 million people had enrolled, including more than 9.6 million through the federally run HealthCare.gov and 3.1 million through the one dozen states operating their own marketplace exchanges.

More importantly, the rate of uninsured adults in the U.S. continues to fall. Gallup-Healthways' latest Well-Being Index on uninsured rates showed a drop of 90 basis points in the first quarter of 2016 to 11% from 11.9% in Q4 2015, the lowest reading since the duo began tracking this statistic in 2008. A lower uninsured rate would suggest that hospitals and physicians are writing off fewer services rendered as uncollectable, and that insurers are spreading their medical expenses over a greater percentage of the population.

Things aren't what they appear
But dig below the headline numbers and things aren't exactly going according to plan. How do we know? Look no further than the white flag that the nation's largest health insurer, UnitedHealth Group (NYSE:UNH), has been waving for the better part of six months. UnitedHealth, which actually operates in nearly two-thirds of all U.S. markets, has predicted it could lose $500 million on its individual Obamacare plans in 2016 and recently announced that it's planning to exit the vast majority of exchanges come 2017. UnitedHealth CEO Stephen Hemsley has blamed higher medical utilization rates for Obamacare members, as well as the ease of switching plans, for his company's Obamacare woes.
