Are you kidding? Go on any states healthcare exchange and price out a plan for a family of four. Subsidies only cover low incomes, apparently $70k for a family of four in NY is rich and can afford $18k/yr premiums with $14k deductible. There are some really piss poor regional plans with weak provider networks that are cheaper but you'll end up getting hit by out of network bills. The major carriers are charging astronomical rates if they are providing Exchange plans at all in 2017.
- jjeaff 10y agoYa, these prices that you see politicians touting are from the cheapest providers and hmo only. In the Los Angeles area, the closest gp was an hour away with a 30 day lead time to get an appointment if you go with the budget plan. For those that don't know, in an hmo, you have to go see your gp for a referral for everything. In grown tonail, go to gp when you know he will refer you to a podiatrist. With a ppo, you can go directly to the specialist. But ppo under aca are the "premium" plans.
- joering2 10y agoWell I don't know the details I have to admit. But I go with what President of USA said - it will be as cheap as your phone bill: "less than a hundred bucks a month". Here is the proof if you don't believe me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lT4VzH5xY8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lT4VzH5xY8
