I think we have high premium & high deductible,because every one lump into one insurance pool. Not like previous the system without the exchange,high risk pool,pre-existing pool are rated separately based on your health.
What you say is true, but they also made expensive things free if they are “prevention” like free $5000 colonoscopies. Only healthy people get thise. If you are sick it’s “diagnostic” and you pay your $6,500 deductible first.
Who care if 14 million people lose “coverage” if they could not afford to use their plan (which they had to pay for too) anyway due to the deductible ?!?
Tort reform would help a lot too.
