Don't listen to politics in the comment. Here are some real life examples:
I am married and have 2 kids. I got a gold plan through the marketplace for $1250 a month. I got no subsidies since I make more than is required. It's a pretty good plan but expensive.
My last job which was pre-obamacare they were deducting $450 a month every 2 weeks for just my wife and I. So nothing really changed for me.
On a sidenote my cousin is low income and she got a killer plan through obamacare for 75 a month. So now she can afford to go to the doctor and not "walk it off" :-)
- eibrahim 11y agoI forgot to add that one thing that benefited me from obamacare is that my wife was pregnant at the time and we didn't get penalized for a "pre existing" condition and the plan covered a lot of the pregnancy cost. Without it I would have been in the whole for $10k or more.
- UnoriginalGuy 11y agoCan you clarify this: > deducting $450 a month every 2 weeks That is confusing/doesn't make sense.
- HanaAuana 11y agoI'm guessing that means the $450 was the employee's share of the premium, deducted pre-tax by the employer
- potatosareok 11y ago$450 a deducted per paycheck. Paycheck every two weeks?
- cylinder 11y ago$15,000 a year for insurance ... plus all the taxes we already pay. Wow. Is this in NY? I'm guessing it's a low deductible plan.
