There have been a very small handful of people who have claimed (without much supporting evidence) that they would pay more. There has been pretty much zero evidence given that people who have insurance through their employer will see any changes.
Saying "because it's so well established" 14 days after the website opened, when most people can't even get onto the site, and a vast majority of people aren't even trying... is BS.
- hga 13y agoYour latter point is incorrect because we're hearing this from people who have insurance and are finding their policies canceled or drastically more expensive. I don't know if it was part of the plan, but rather obviously that should happen before or soon after the website opens, so they'll know they have to go to it, or should go to see if they can get a better deal. You're claiming it's "a very small handful" simply tells me your normal sources of information aren't seriously covering this problem.
- NateDad 13y agoI have yet to see a link (credible or not) to statistics of how many people's insurances are getting cancelled and/or going up due to the ACA. I see a lot of people claiming this is happening without any substantiation. As a totally insignificant data point, my company told us that our insurance was staying the same price this year, and we only have 166 people in the US, so it's not like we're some huge corporation that has a ton of clout to keep our costs down.
