At least you will have insurance for now.. Then Those old rates will be gone under the new system And the rates will be much much lower. Evil controls the ignorant...

Quoting: jake At least you will have insurance for now.. Then Those old rates will be gone under the new system And the rates will be much much lower. I bunch of the new plans put forward have a note that if you have a gap in coverage you can't sign up. If that stipulation stays into whatever gets push you better not have any period without coverage or you will be shit out of luck. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 43326872 United States 01/10/2017 05:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I would be with no insurance from March 1 to October 1, at which time I will get Medicare. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73077578 I already had an Obamacare plan picked out and planned to apply after January 15, which would make the in effect date, March 1. The plan would cost me $147 per month. That number reflects a subsidy of $655. So...the policy cost would actually be about $800 per month without the subsidy. Now there is talk of Trump wanting to eliminate Obamacare within a few weeks of taking office and while he may not get rid of all of it, he may eliminate the subsidies! I can't afford $800 a month and neither can most. So I am in a quandary...do I risk it until October or do I buy the plan hoping he will not touch the subsidy? Any thoughts. Death before Dishonor |
