Yawn.............12 million losing insurance............I'm now one of them.............
My increase was 61% increase................Oh well, say's the libs, it must suck to be you and just ignore we are getting screwed over...................
Affordable Care Act.......................Wrong name..................It sure as hell isn't Affordable to Millions anymore...............But hey, if you are in the lower wage's they say it's great..................................................
Damaging those not damaged before the law, and still trying to Justify their BS.
Are you in a responsible State with an exchange? Did you take advantage of it, or the Federal exchange? Was the 61% increase the least expensive option there? Did you ask your former insurer what their increase is attributed to? Were there other benefit changes than those required by ACA? Did you have other changes that increased the insurance companies risk?
What's up with you? EVERYONE is complaining about the monthly premium cost of Obamacare--regardless if they're getting it on the state exchanges or the federal exchange.
I am another Coloradoan out of 250,000 of us that are getting the policies we liked CANCELLED. I was paying $238.00 per month for insurance. I am 60 years old and healthy, choose a 10K deductible to keep my premiums low. I don't paying for my own doctor's visits, or prescription medicine. I have a $2500.00 coverage for emergency room visits--and my physicals each year are paid for by the insurer. This is the Plan I liked and one that I could afford.

I went to my state Obamacare site--and my next choice is $495.00 per month with a 6K deductible.
So that's more than twice the premium that I was paying. The deductible at 6K is still too high for what I am paying in a monthly premium.
This is NOTHING NEW--it's just that Americans are slowly finding out that the cough-cough Affordable Health care act is really NOT Affordable.
Are Obamacare plans affordable? - Nov. 21, 2013Many Americans browsing the Obamacare exchanges are finding the Affordable Care Act isn't living up to its name.
It's not just premiums that are bringing up the costs. Consumers are finding high deductibles, co-payments and other expenses that make the Obamacare policies seem more like catastrophic plans than comprehensive insurance.
Those picking a bronze plan, which carry the lowest monthly rates, may have to spend $5,000 or more before the insurance kicks in. The next highest level of coverage, the silver tier, can carry $2,000 deductibles. And once they hit their deductibles, policy holders still have to pay for doctor visits, lab tests and medication.
Now there is absolutely no problem with you--yourself getting on either your state exchange or the federal exchange to browse around for insurance coverage. They'll probably count you in as an enrollee in the stats. But if you see something that looks "affordable" let us know---
