Can you get retroactive “insurance”? I know there has been talk about just wait until you get sick and then sign up but not sure if you’re in an accident, for instance, if you can get back dated hospital coverage.

So....

IF (as Odumbass said) over a million people have ‘enrolled’, and only 5-10% have PAID (we'll go with 5% since even that is probably an exaggerated lie)

That's 50,000 people.

They needed 7 million to be economically viable.

The 90-95% non-payers will NOT have their insurance cancelled for nonpayment.

The grim reality, of the rat voters having to pay for ObozoCare not just the other people has hit home with many of the rat voters.

Then, the middle class non rat decided they couldn't afford to sign up and pay.

How much of a negative impact on Christmas spending will the real cost of Obamacare have?

There has been a great disturbance in the Force...

The Dark Jedi have a particular sensitivity to these phenomena. And they are quite agitated.

“Wait ‘til the “glitches” with payment issues.”

My wife and I know a fair number of Doctors still in practice.

For the past few weeks, in private discussions, I have been asking if they are ready for the tsunami of Obama Care, which will start on 2 Jan 2014.

Most ask what I mean.

Then, I ask them if they are ready for their good patients thinking they are covered and may not be due their previous policies being cancelled?

How about the people, who think they are signed up for Obama Care and are not?

How about the previously uninsured showing up demanding care?

Many have gotten that far?

I though some 80-90% were medicare anyway that the taxpayers were paying for. We pay for their care and now we pay insurance so we are paying twice for the same thing.

i am guessing if they are saying 5-10% it is probably more like 0-1%

I am sticking with my original prediction of a total of 66,666 total PAID enrollments although that might be a gross overestimate.

The longer the Regime delays in releasing the number of PAID enrollments, the lower you know it will be. Perhaps they will delay past the State Of The Union Address.

“The 90-95% non-payers will NOT have their insurance cancelled for nonpayment”

The 90-95% are medicaid and will not have to pay at all.

It will be. The Insurance dupes, er...companies, will be told to suck it up—or else!

Few will pay because they are expecting and waiting for Obama to send them the check in the mail.

I don’t want to have to depend on any doctors... Not with the FUBAR health system due to Obama-Kare. I have embarked on my own health care avoidance program. I am doing lots of exercising and got on a very good vitamin program and am eating better. I am forced to do this (but liking it!) due to Obama-Sibelious-Democrats ruining this nations medical care provider system

People thought they were signing up for free healthcare. If they could pay for it, they would have done so without Obamacare. Forcing them up against the wall with fines and threats doesn’t work when the money isn’t there.

Another dirty little secret of what is coming! Lets see how many of these that signed up will make their payments. Just wait until these newly insured people who are only paying $100 a month have to make a decision between paying their premium or buying the next release of the iPhone…..
