a lot of people are upset about the cost of health care under the law. the fact is the price of health plans are going up for several reasons including the fact that insurers are now required to offer richer benefits and because many of the underwriting practices insurers used to limit their risk (like denying coverage to people with pre-existing conditions) are now illegal. for lower income people who qualify for a subsidy the cost of insurance may be quite affordable actually. many will have access to very low or in some cases no-cost coverage. but if your income is above the threshold to qualify you for financial help you'll likely find your costs going up. those optimistic about the long-term effects of the law believe that with millions more americans insured in time health care costs will slow. but that remains to be seen.
why is everyone paying more for health insurance? why do people have to switch doctors and companies? . why are my rates going through the roof? if i get the bare bones offered i lose. the president promised none of what is happening would happen so why is it happening?
