Serious question...anyone in here signed up for the ACA? (Obamacare)...

[Bill]

Here is something regarding ACA I read on FB from a girl I went to high school with.


ok so I call and get signed up for this insurance like I'm suppose to on time have and pay my premium all before the first of January . now for the past 2 weeks I have been fighting with them because the have my health insurance as the wrong package cant get anyone to help me there just keep getting transferred or someone will call me back which they have not done my dental insurance just now today got put into the system , I've been waiting on this because my daughter needs to have her wisdom teeth pulled this week and I don't have the 1047.00 to pay out of pocket I get excited its in there then they tell me there is a 12 mth waiting period for oral surgery . what the hell. thanks Obama for the wonderful health care u have provided for us . we did our part in getting signed up on time so we wouldn't get a penalized now please do your part. im so angry!!!!!!

Oral surgery for wisdom teeth is dental insurance and was never covered by health insurance.

I'll be just another in the critical age to pay the penalty.

Quac, first off, you have my sincere empathy for your current situation. I can't imagine what your family is going through. The Tax credit that you speak of, who pays that portion?

Oral surgery for wisdom teeth is dental insurance and was never covered by health insurance.

the problem is that many people do have dental insurance as an add-on to a health policy.

and now that their old policy has been canceled thanks to the genius at 1600, and a new waiting period kicks in, they now have a year WITHOUT coverage that they had before.

The highest deductible I have ever had was $550 for the family and $175 for individual. I work for two chemical companies the last 20 years. How in the world can anyone afford a $6500 deductible after paying those premiums all year.

[Ironman]

You really can't blame the government or the bill on this fiasco. They only had 3 and a half years to get it ironed out.

Huh?

[Ironman]

I would normally take your wisdom.

This? Not a chance!

Didn't see a

Not in my case, mine was covered by medical. I had already meet my total out of pocket for the year and did not cost me a dime.

[Buff]

I wonder?
Once it is in full effect, will the hospitals turn away the folks that do t have it or don't have the money to pay their deductible ?

Right now if someone gets the flu, they can go to the hospital if they don't want to pay a doctor bill.

[Texastaxi]

Yes our base premium is $1014 per month and we get a tax credit of $530 per month leaving us paying $484 per month. Yes again we do have to pay the first $6500 but after that we are 100% paid for the year. With Trina probably going through chemo again this year we and her having another surgery this coming monday we will easly use more than the $6500.

So, after you pay 30.8% of your gross income, they'll start picking up the tab?
Doesn't sound too affordable to me.

I'm very sorry to hear about your wife. You both will be in my prayers.

[KR-oldmexico]

Nope, I care too much for my employees!

This is a nightmare that will be a catastrophic failure soon!

A buddy of mines mther went to look into it and she told me they couldnt qualify for it and couldnt afford it.

I was told by an officer in the Dfac yesterday, while watching the news at the table with me, that the more folks signing up brings the rates down. Not sure how much he understood the AHCA.

Is it safe to enter data into the Obamacare system?

Here in the small state(pop. About 2 million) I live in 38 of the Obamacare navigators are in the FBI crime database.

Among the charges that popped up on the FBI criminal database were eight domestic violence charges, four drug charges, two larceny charges, one petty theft charge, one shoplifting charge and two child abuse charges.

No it's not safe to enter information.
The navigators are anyone who wanted a job with little or no back ground checks
Best job in the world for a criminal

Simple fact about gov HC is this,
It ensures that every citizen is now a slave to them
Since welfare and social security were enacted they had one goal and that was to eventually make every citizen rely on Washington DC.
With HC, FREEDOM of choice is gone, quality is gone, and this countries economic future is gone. Sure there will be stories of how this HC has " helped " someone here or there but at what expense? My kids future? A person get a " tax credit " to pay for their outrageous premiums, will I get a thank you, hell no! Credits are paid by other citizens, not the government. The freakin gov does not have money, so these credits are paid by me, and others who will never get this credit. I work two jobs so that I can provide a little extra for my family and guess what, I'm the idiot/ target in this country, not the mooch.
The only reason HC was expensive in the last was because
Of Gov. Mandates placed on the insurance companies. EVERY TIME GOV. sticks it's grimey hands on something it ruins it.
