- hga 13y ago2. Is way too late for the millions losing their insurance as of Jan 1. In theory anyone who had a policy before Obamacare was passed should have been grandfatherd, but HHS wrote regulations so strict, such that if anything changed like deductables, copays, or benefits, their policies are toast (per NBC: http://investigations.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/10/28/21213547-obama-admin-knew-millions-could-not-keep-their-health-insurance?lite http://investigations.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/10/28/21213547-...). These people are truly screwed; only something that allows others to calculate or get subsidies calculations would accommodate them, and since those become are direct payments from the Federal government you can understand why it wants a great deal of control over them.
