So You Think You're Enrolled In ObamaCare

ObamaCare Fail: An urgent mass email to all Senate staff warns not to trust any confirmation from the D.C. health exchange and they may not have insurance come January. Why aren't the rest of us being warned?

We have chronicled the fact that ObamaCare, the increasingly unaffordable Affordable Care Act, has caused many with pre-existing conditions like stage-four cancer, the very people it was supposed to help, to lose their insurance at a critical point in their lives.

For others, the skyrocketing premiums and often five-figure deductibles have made having insurance almost irrelevant. If you can't afford the premiums or the deductibles, it's almost the same as having no insurance.

And for those who think they've made the successful transition from policies they liked and were told they could keep to ObamaCare policies they can't afford and don't want, another surprise is coming — they may not have the insurance they think they have.

Senate staffers who have enrolled through their local exchange, D.C. Health Link (DCHL), were warned of this prospect in an emergency email sent out by the Senate Disbursing Office on Monday.

"Do NOT rely on your 'My Account' page or other correspondence from DCHL" for confirmation that you are covered, the email warns staffers.

The email advises to come to the disbursing office immediately to see if they have a physical confirmation letter, warning, "If we do NOT have a Confirmation Letter for you, YOU ARE NOT ENROLLED and will not have health insurance next year."

The rest of the American people have received no cautionary email, nor are they about to hike down to their local exchange to personally verify their actual enrollment.

Yep!

And I just loved listening to Paul Ryan, one of “ours” talking about the republican plan or whatever...

Our plan will “allow” you to keep your doctor....

You ain’t gonna “allow” me to do a damn thing, Paul.

Who the Hell do you think you are?
