Another Obamacare glitch: Adding a new baby to plan not easy

There's another quirk in the Obama administration's new health insurance system: It lacks a way for consumers to quickly and easily update their coverage for the birth of a baby and other common life changes.

With regular private insurance, parents just notify the health plan. Insurers will still cover new babies, the administration says, but parents will also have to contact the government at some point later on.

Right now the HealthCare.gov website can't handle such updates.

No problem when everyone is having an abortion anyway.

And that’s what these Medicaiders do. Have babies to get more out of the gvmt. Screw up of major proportions.

Probably just a minor [Freudian] slip, with them expecting to put in place a one-baby-per-family policy at some point...

Some will opt to just go for the much easier absorption and live the rest of their live in remorse guilt shame depression and drug addiction with perhaps the associtaed breast cancer along wit the 40 million or so other such slaves to ‘women’s rights’

Gee, with its abortion mandate and all, it would kind of make you think that the inventors of Obamacare do not like babies.

So .... that’s why the contraception ‘mandate’ is so important - you just don’t have any kids any more. Kill off the old folks, stop babies from being conceived or abort them if they are .... I believe EZKill Emmanuel is a big proponent of population control and he’s got it written into Obamacare. /s

Fools! It’s all right there on the website! All you do to add a born alive fetus is check the box next to “punishment”!

Meanwhile, the smiling dictator is enjoying a vacation in warm Hawaii, laughing at all the suckers who voted for him.

The whole leftist (misnamed) “progressive” agenda is anti-human… from abortion on demand to killing those who are handicapped or comatose (Terri Schiavo comes to mind). Now they want to warehouse human beings in 200-300 sq, ft “cells” in NYC and call it “affordable housing”. The “settled” (anti?) science of “global warming” (aka: climate change on cold days) seeks to ration every aspect of what used to be “normal life”… as too much freedom and prosperity “harms” the earth (CO2 a product of life is now the enemy). So it figures having little CO2 producing critters (aka: children) would not be encouraged, thus not eligible for “affordable healthcare” coverage. Satan hates the human race and apparently so do liberals (themselves excepted of course). So good luck to those of us who encounter “death panels”… who shall determine our “worth” to “society” (aka: them, our owners). For bottom line death is god liberals worship.

Which means we’re no longer a nation of laws,
but a nation of what a man says is law.

Children under 24 months are not covered under any family plan. You must pay for separate coverage so your costs go up even more. But don’t worry after 24 months your kid can be part of your coverage up to 26 years old.

People here are missing the point. The Lefties who drafted the bill don't know about babies because they don't have babies they have abortions. Their Experience of Life does not include babies so why would they write provisions for them into the bill?

Don’t worry. Newborn babies make up such a small percentage of people who need healthcare that they really don’t matter... Chairman Obamao has declared that they make up an insignificant portion of his followers and can be sacrificed for the greater good. It is just like all the people who couldn’t keep their private insurance... they make up less than 5% of the population so they don’t matter. Plus most babies can’t even vote. Why should the leftists worry about them at all?
