If that's what the Administration confirmed, can you just IMAGINE the truth?
Ive been checking health insurance costs regularly for years.
I have health insurance through my work which is mediocre but I check healthcare.gov and the open market costs on ehealthinsurance.com every year.
Last year the bottom of the barrel ($6,650 deductible with $30 copay and 50% coninsurance on most things) bronze plan for me only on healthcare.gov would have been $295.00 per month. This year ( I just checked a few minutes ago ) it is 327.36/mo. so an 11% increase.
Sad thing is a plan like that in 2010 when the ACA was passed only cost about $46/mo for me. a 700% increase in health insurance premiums for me over 6 years.
Luckily, I suppose, I can get insurance through my work for about $120/mo
