That's if those prices aren't artificially low and doesn't include deductibles, co-payments, prescriptions and the cost of buying or renting medical equipment, etc.

Yup. That's another thing. Some of the uneducated masses that actually DO find their way to signing up for a plan are going to expect that this means they get "free" medical care afterwards. They're going to be in for a shock when they realize that the first $1,000-$2,000 (or more) is on them.

All the New Hampshire policies available on the exchange only provide benefits if you use a very small list of hospitals and doctors. Around one third of the hospitals in the state aren't even included. Neither are the big research hospitals where you end up if you are really sick.
Real price quotes for New Hampshire are available from the Anthem web site, and they are way higher than what the general info sites provide as estimates.
