Student health care costs set to soar at private North Carolina college due to ObamaCare
Campus Reform ^

Posted on 08/27/2012 1:10:58 PM PDT by oliverdarcy

Guilford College in North Carolina is poised to raise the prices they charge students for health insurance by 75 percent as a direct result of the implementation of President Obama’s landmark healthcare legislation, administrators told Campus Reform late last week.

The price for university provided health care is expected to rise from $668 to $1,179 for the 2012-2013 school year, Greg Bursavich, who is the Vice President for Finance at Guilford College, told students in a letter late last month.

“Our student health insurance policy premium has been substantially increased due to changes required by federal regulations issued on March 16, 2012 under the Affordable Care Act,” read an e-mail Bursavich sent to the student body.

In an exclusive interview with Campus Reform, Bursavich further implicated ObamaCare for the drastic rise in prices.

Serious question; why do they need to provide student healthcare when everyone 26 or under would be covered as a child under their parents insurance under the ACA? Just drop the healthcare and forget about it...

Does this mean that other students are paying $2,000 each over four years for Sandra Fluke and women like her to continue their hobby? That's not fair. Shouldn't it just be money that comes from nowhere, you know, Obama's stash that's paying for Stimulus, TARP, Bailout, Cash-for-Clunkers, and other parts of ObamaCare? If kids have to pay for insurance that covers more stuff being more expensive, wouldn't it be cheaper to pay for their own dates with women who have morals and if necessary cover their own birth control on their own?

We need to find more stories about rising healthcare insurance costs on college campuses.

Only then will the students realize that Obama is one bad dude.

I’m sure Mr. Bursavich would also detail the commission that the university receives for the captive market he has delivered to the insurance company.

That is because most of these grasshoppers will not have to pay the increase, their ant parents will.
As a wise soldier said once- You just can’t fix stupid.

If you think birth control is expensive now, wait until it's free.

Rush Limbaugh was wrong when he called Sandra Fluke a “slut”. She’s actually a “nymphomaniac”.

If she needs $3,000 a year for birth control items (condoms, contraceptive pills, cork plugs, etc)., then she is a college boy’s dream come true, a woman who will take on all cumers.

At Georgetown she has her ONE PERCENTER boyfriend, the whole law school, and the football team to fulfill her needs.

Gee, my college tuition for three years only used to be $3,000 (girls not included). Now, it gives a girl one year of unlimited, but protected sex.

My how times have changed.

I went to school to learn. She goes to law school to learn how to screw people, legally, and then does is physically.
The perfect shister, and shithead.
