Fox News is reporting that employer-provided health care plans may be a thing of the past.
Former Obama health adviser Zeke Emanuel predicted that Obamacare will replace 80 percent of employer-provided health plans will disappear in 10 years.
“It’s going to actually be better for people. They’ll have more choice,” Emanuel said. “Most people who work for an employer and get their coverage through an employer do not have choice.” …

re: I’ll believe it when the public employees of America give up their employer provided health coverage and go on ObamaCare.
They are the remaining 20%.
you have a lot more faith in the average corporation than I do.
I am fairly certain that 90% of employers that cut health coverage will not raise the salaries of employees to compensate. They will use 1 of 1000 excuses for why, but the result will be the same. You will be earnings the same as yesterday, but now you wont have free health coverage, and instead will have to go buy it from Obama.
“End of lives” policy....get rid of the moral, Liberty lovers for good.
Wavers already issued.

Um. Yeah. Sure. That explains the employer mandate. Thanks, Fox.
Liberalism: ideas so good, they’re mandatory.
For now, is right! The real fun begins when Dr. Zeke and his buds advocate for mandatory euthanasia....along with the right of decision as to who 'gets it'.
Before accepting this trash, visit the interview on the Megyn Kelly show, Zeke is the nastiest Idiot I have seen on T.V.
He rants and raves and is a main author of OBAMACARE.
My Daughter’s health is now at$ $9600 per year .
This Zeke Dude should be Arrested.
I agree with this entirely. This won't cover catastrophic health care issues, like a bone marrow transplant for specific malignancies, but it would pay for a lot. Catastrophic health care costs could be covered by much more affordable insurance.
Further, let physicians and health care facilities compete with each other directly. We are doing just the opposite now - with private physicians and smaller hospitals and specialty centers being consumed by large and ever-growing hospital corporations.
They won’t let the 300% cost increases come till after the election.
Dr. Zeke (Mengele) Emmanual actually works here at the university of pennsylvania. Physician with no patients.
i call him Mengele as well. Dr. with no patients.
Employers dont have to provide healthcare benefits and more since the economy is so bad. Its easy to keep employees when they are terrified of unemployment. The law of unintended consequences works for the employer.
“It’s actually going to be better”. That’s the only lie you really need to hear.
““It’s going to actually be better for people. They’ll have more choice,” Emanuel said. “Most people who work for an employer and get their coverage through an employer do not have choice.” …”
You do have choices. You can get a different job if the health care choices are so bad. Under government control of health care there is nowhere else to go.
rahms vile brother is the one that told us that these plans would ultimately have to “attenuate” the provided healthcare as we age,
Translation: as you get older, you will simply be EOL counseled to go home and die, (unless of course your politically connected george sorors and then you will be first in line to get that blood transfusion, new kidney or heart) the rest of us who may be old or incapacitated in some manner will become useless eaters to the all-powerful, all-knowing, all-wise state,
watch how euthanasia options will also begin to be naturally proffered up alongside as we continue down this descent into deathcare hell,
there is nothing new here, margaret sanger harris would be proud of zeke,
Exactly right. The money that’s used by employers to pay the majority of a health plan will just disappear. That’s really part of one’s wages now, just diverted towards the premium.
It’s called a “benefit” for a reason. It’s part of your overall compensation for working for Company A. When they get rid of it all together and dump people onto Obamacare every full time employee takes a pay cut.
The open insurance market is almost dead due to obamacare.
