The ACA for 2018- What To Expect

The_Waco_Kid's Avatar
The reason the subsidy is needed is because the government is asking the health insurance companies to sell health insurance policies to people "WHO ARE ALREADY SICK". This alone is driving up cost for a health insurance company to conduct business. So, prior to 2010 before the ACA became law, health insurance companies simply did not sell health insurance to people with pre-existing conditions or people who were already sick in the Individual market.

The ACA is doing what it is suppose to do, get more people insured. Premium spikes that we have seen in some states will level off as the risk pools become more balanced.

when will u admit that it's not doing what it was supposed to do? self-fund by compelling by IRS fine everyone of age to get health insurance? why are the Gov subsidized exchanges such money losing deals that all (well to be fair most) of the major players have gotten out of them???

not once in all your bloviating about how great ACA is supposed to be, have you explained that point. idiot.

The ACA is not collapsing under its own weight. Health insurance companies filed there rate increases with the commissioner of insurance for each state that they plan to do business in. In 2017 there was at least one provider in every county of the USA. Each state had more that one health insurance provider.

it's collapsing under the weight of a socialist single-player black hole. idiot. socialist. dumbfuck.

Last thing, the Obamacare plans sold on the Government Exchange is "REAL INSURANCE" and is accepted at good hospitals like Children's Hospital in Houston, Texas. (One of the best hospitals in the state) Originally Posted by flghtr65

So 10 milion more people got health insurance than before. At what cost? Bilions of dollars? Tens of billions? Hundreds of billions? How much does that come out to per person? Originally Posted by the_real_Barleycorn

Cost per person = 800,000,000,000 / 325,246,840 = $2,459.67

JD's original question is how much is it costing each citizen to have the ACA law implemented. The ACA law is costing each citizen aprox $2,459.67 over a 10 year period. OR

The ACA law is costing each citizen apox $245.97 per year.

JD's question is not about insurance coverage.

Your hero Bush43 signed into law Medicare Part D, which has taxpayers helping seniors pay for their prescriptions. Using your logic is Bush43 a socialist?

Last but not least, two of your favorite people Kim Kardashian and Kanye West just sold one of their homes for $18 million dollars. So how could the USA be socialist?

Note: the bums and the people who don't work are taken care of by Original Medicaid, which was signed into law by LBJ in 1965. Original Medicaid is not a part of the calculation for the question JD asked. You got all this now Hillbilly?

It is not a calculation of how much each health insurance policy cost for the 16 million people who received some type of subsidy from the Federal Government to get their coverage.

Remember if you are a family of 4 and your income is > $94,000 you do not get a subsidy you pay out of pocket. Same goes if you are single and your income > $48,000.

“Policy of the People”- 80% of Obamacare Mandate Paid by Sub $50K Households

Barack Obama ran as a hero for the common American, promising “hope and change” for the nation’s downtrodden.

It’s no surprise that his signature legislation, Obamacare, was also marketed as an amazing benefit for the middle class and poor Americans.

However, a new report reveals that Obama’s true legacy should actually be taking money out of the pockets of average Americans in one of the rawest deals since Bernie Madoff.

According to Forbes contributor Ryan Ellis, the individual mandate that is at the center of Obamacare actually hits working-class families the hardest.

“The mandate is a tax which punishes those who can least afford it,” Ellis wrote.

TRENDING: “Policy of the People”- 80% of Obamacare Mandate Paid by Sub $50K Households

He looked at the breakdown of who actually pays the individual mandate surtax, which is the penalty that kicks in if a person doesn’t purchase government-approved health insurance. What he found was shocking.

“According to the IRS, some 6.7 million American families pay Obamacare’s individual mandate surtax, forking over $3 billion annually to Uncle Sam merely for exercising their right not to purchase an unaffordable Obamacare plan,” Ellis wrote.

“It turns out most of these taxpayers are solidly in the middle class. The great majority of them (80 percent) actually make less than $50,000 per year. This is perhaps the most regressive tax we have on the books today.”

Around 5.3 million Americans who earn under $50,000 annually were forced to pay the mandate penalty, which averaged about $340 per person.

Yes, average citizens are being charged hundreds of dollars for the right to not buy expensive insurance. So much for the “Affordable” Care Act.

Sen. Steve Daines, a Montana Republican, did a similar analysis of the numbers, and came to the same conclusion: Individuals and families making under $50,000 are the ones being burdened by the mandate.

What would happen if the mandate and its penalties were dissolved? Contrary to the doom and gloom spread by Obamacare’s proponents, the sky probably wouldn’t fall.

“Ending the individual mandate surtax will not cause anyone to lose their health insurance,” Ellis argued. “It will merely stop punishing people who choose not to buy expensive insurance with a surtax they cannot afford, either.”

During the push to pass Obamacare, Democrats and Obama himself waved away the penalty or surtax as something that middle-class people didn’t need to worry about.

That penalty, they insisted, would be for rich Americans who were wealthy enough to cover their medical expenses out of pocket, or who wanted some exotic insurance plan that didn’t meet the Obamacare requirements.

Like so much — dare we say all? — of Obamacare, the promises turned out to be lies. It was snake oil sold by Democrats who were desperate for a political win.

Nobody disputes that America’s health care system can be improved, but Obamacare was not the way.

Like so much of his agenda, Obama’s Obamacare legacy is falling apart.

Is this suppose to be a gotcha question, IFFY? Let's recap what your post is saying. Basically, people who earn less than $50,000 have to pay a $340 tax/fine per person if they choose not get health insurance.

What your article fails to mention is that people who make $50,000 are eligible to get a large subsidy from the government to help pay their premium in the individual market. After the subsidy is applied the cost of your premium for year is about the same as the amount of the tax.

Consider this example. A family of two that makes $50,000 will get a subsidy of $420 dollars. Using this Michigan zip code of 48083 there are a couple of plans that will have the monthly premium of $60 after the government subsidy is applied. In this example the premium for the year is $720. According to your article the tax for not having health insurance is $340 per person or $680 for a married couple. The policy premium for the year is only $40 more than the tax. The government is helping people in this income range. For an extra $40 you can have a "real health insurance policy" from a company like BCBS. Everything stated can be backed up at ehealthinsurance.com.
