San Francisco architect Lee Hammack and his wife, JoEllen Brothers, are a good example. http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/health/SF-Couple-Kaiser-Health-Insurance

  Still not seeing the plan side by side, or seeing the other options/plans that were offered in place. The article only mentions a couple dollar amounts. As ck2 says, everything that's been tossed around (that I've seen) so far has been anecdotal, sensationalized, or flat out bogus. Will there be some hiccups? Of course. But they are the exception, not the rule.

    2014 Price is more expensive (but relatively modest ~$50/month), but co-pays and deductibles are dramatically more expensive than in 2013. http://www.propublica.org/documents/item/815691-kaiser2014benefits http://www.propublica.org/documents/item/815691-kaiser2014be...

      Those deductibles include dependents (children & spouses) which the previous plan did not. They weren't even covered under the 2013 plan.

  >which could also not explain why the plan did not meet the Affordable Care Act's requirements. News at 10, health insurance companies are participating in shady business deals. I have absolutely no proof but they probably did some huge accounting for Obamacare and cancelled plans that they deemed less profitable rather than making some minor change in favor of those they thought they would make more money on using Obamacare as an excuse.
