You had a legal right under the PPACA to keep your health plan simply by asking its provider that it be continued

My provider discontinued doing business in our high- tax blue state in the wake of Ocare getting passed, so there’s that.

I have not read the act but I suspect it would be a case of the language does not prevent you from keeping your health plan but the effects of the act mean your health plan won’t be able to continue without a monumental increase in rates which will force you to drop it. I did phone work for a time with a political advocacy firm and spoke to people who had been in the heath insurance business for decades but could not decipher the language in that monstrosity and told me that no one they knew in the business could figure it out. In the end I would guess that they went along with whatever meaning the federal goon squad agreed to. I believe that some parts of the nation were left with only one company active in the area. I remember being told of absurdities such as requiring men to have maternity coverage.
