That's the cost before the subsidy, isn't it?
there was no fucking subsidy, dimwit......
That's the cost before the subsidy, isn't it?
I don't believe the premium was that high and without documented proof, it's bullshit.
I'm not taking your word for it.
He seems to be saying that your response is unverifiable as regards your premium increase. He has a point, if that's the case.
Did you or your insurer ever receive any Obamacare-related "subsidies" to your knowledge?
Either through the exchanges or his employer. And I'm doubtful has has the latter.
of course not........
As I said, he could only get it through the exchanges or his employer. Or he's on government health care like medicaid and is lying about it.
Well, he doesn't provide details or verification, so we are left to guess. That's deliberate on his part.
That's the risk you take when you invoke personal anecdotes as the only support of your position.
.
Secondary medical? What about your primary?
you are right.....I do not have an employer.......I have been self employed since 1980........
I went on Medicare in 2016 when I reached the age of 65
.......I paid for my own insurance through BC/BS until my plan was cancelled because it did not reach the standards set by Obamacare (it did not provide maternity coverage for my 64 year old wife
..my $675 per month with a $5000 deductible plan was replaced by a Priority Health Plan at the cost of $1365 per month with a $6400 deductible......I paid for that insurance myself.......I also paid taxes so you could get cheaper insurance.......
I am sorry I didn't send you a copy of my insurance bill, my income taxes and the wiring instructions for my bank accounts.......you are right.......it was all deliberate......meanwhile I don't give a fuck if some guy who's been here a week and made 206 posts believes me or not......
and being told to fuck yourself is a risk you take when you post here......
Your the one who says medical insurance premiums keep going up so I just thought I'd throw that in.. Not to mention medical insurance premiums are not considered when referring to oope, as bad as you want it to. Sorry sport you're wrong no matter how you try to spin it.
So as a "self-employed" person, do you get your health insurance as an individual or via the SHOP exchanges?
Moocher.
and yet my rates doubled when they were included........not when they were excluded.......so much for the validity of your argument.....Of course you might not need it, but someone else who enrolls in the same insurance plan might. By making that a mandatory part of the coverage, you attract younger, healthier people to your insurance plan, which results in keeping your costs low. When you start excluding people, that's what causes insurance premiums to rise.
dude.....if it was a different plan it was in fact replaced....First of all, it wasn't replaced. You had the ability to go on the exchanges and find a different plan.
???.....I chose the cheapest plan......it was twice what I had been paying......my plan had to be replaced because it no longer existed.......are you deliberately ignoring what I have already posted?.....That would require you to act like an adult, which it appears gives you trouble. Your insurance company didn't unilaterally replace your previous plan with that one; you made the choice to do that. So why did you select a plan that was so much more money? Why didn't you go on the exchanges and find a cheaper, better plan suited to your needs? This is specifically why I think your claim is bullshit - your plan wasn't "replaced", you deliberately selected that new plan. So why did you select that plan, knowing it was more expensive? Because you didn't, and this story you're concocting is bullshit....isn't it?
Secondly, no one believes for a second that you make enough money to not qualify for a subsidy. No one also believes for a second that you have your own business. Secondly, even if you did have your own business, the rules for Obamacare don't apply to you, and you continue to buy your own insurance through your SHOP exchanges. Your story has quite a few plotholes to it that render the rest of your argument contradictory; you say you are self-employed...what does that mean for you because that's a vague term? Does it mean you are self-employed via your own business? Are you an independent contractor? Or are you just making all this shit up to try and conflate things so you don't have to answer truthfully? You also only pay taxes for Obamacare if you make over $1M a year as an individual. And no one here believes your shitty little "self-employed" home business nets you $1M a year in profit.
Thing is, your entire argument hinges on me believing you. .
That is suspicious because health insurance premiums increase every year.
