Oh, dear. The author’s disappearing health insurance plan sounds a lot like ours.

We are reading story after story from folks with similar complaints.

And this is just the beginning folks. In the weeks to come MILLIONS of employees will see their 2014 healthcare options (and the costs of those plans) presented.

And they too - like this author - will (bleep) their pants.

There is no evidence that anyone's healthcare premiums will go up.

But the Kaiser mailing is not encouraging. As my new-premium letter declared in its second paragraph, in big, bold letters: “Everything is taken care of. There’s nothing you need to do.”

Ah, but now it’s affordable for the FSA.

Now shut up and pay more than your fair share.

I think that equally important is how much your deductible/out-of-pocket increased as well.

This is gonna be good. The next few weeks will be fun to watch. This is the result of colossal stupidity on the part of the electorate.
It’s unfair to the normal people who voted against the marxist. When your neighbors complain, just say that you didn’t vote for the marxist.

Quit your whining, George. Democrats voted. It’s the law of the land.

Yes, it’s time to say goodbye to my current plan, with its $232-a-month premium. That plan is being discontinued, I’m told, because it “does not meet the requirements of the ACA.” It was a nice plan, with low premiums, free physical exams, a high deductible and eligibility for a Health Savings account. We got access to Kaiser’s lower in-plan rates for minor medical care, and we had the peace of mind of substantial coverage if anything catastrophic ever happened.

That's the crux of the matter right there. The 'benevolent' federal government has decided what kind of benefits Americans should have, regardless of people's individual wants and needs, and has imposed a top-down regime with mandated benefits.
Insurance companies, in order to remain solvent and cover millions of uninsured, must raise premiums to cover their increased costs of providing these government mandated services.

Central planning doesn't work in economics, and it doesn't work in health care. Freedom works.

I don’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Just vote for Obama again (if he ignores the Constitution/BOR and runs anyways), or Hillary Clinton (if he doesn't). That'll fix EVERYthing.

I have private insurance through my employer and have been “assured” that nothing is going to change — yeah right!! We’ve already been informed that DH’s insurance no longer covers me and mine no longer covers him.

I expect a HUGE increase soon or a massive deduction.

Damn you Judge Roberts!!

Hey - don’t worry about these little ‘glitches’. They are merely ‘anecdotal’, says dear leader and the rest of his clown car passengers.

Are the freakin’ idiot senators reading this stuff? The garbage in the Senate is purposely ignoring it! They will pay a heavy price.

Yeah, but your co-pay and deductibles are also up sharply to make up for the higher premiums, Oh, wait...
