“The result? For insurance coverage that falls into what Healthcare.gov calls the bronze level around $5,000 annual deductible per person and twice that for family, some prescription coverage and some office visit copays the hypothetical family will spent $160 a month less in premiums buying now compared with buying after Jan. 1, when all insurance must meet certain Affordable Care Act mandates.
To be specific, the premiums were $513 a month now but $673 a month next year, according to Stebbins work.
The difference is less than it seems because the deductible was a few hundred dollars higher in other words, better under the plan after Jan. 1, which is nothing to sneeze at.”

Have there been any legitimate reports of people saving money yet?
