Do you have your $6,000 deductible ready for your Obamacare?

?

  • No

  • Yes

I dont.

$6000 deductible before you see penny one of "benefits".

The cost of this "privilege"? Up to an additional $3,600 per year in premiums.

That is for the cheapest plan! 🙄

We may only see a year and a half of Obamacare anyway, depending on how many seats the Democrats lose in 2016.

This thing is so outrageous its incredible. What they should have done was offer Medicare to people who were "uninsurable" and could not get it but whose income was too high to qualify. Simple, easy fix. BUT NO! :\

People without insurance do to low income usually got it free from the county hospitals anyway.
 
OP made herself attention queen of the day. The award for drama queen was already taken. Why so many liars in this forum.
 
I think this varies by state. If I recall, Shehateme chose a plan that has very high premiums but little to pay beyond that. If I recall again, Tennessee also offers a similar plan. As for the deductible, I do, although it's a serious pain and takes a good bit of our reserve. Gotta have a reserve as things much worse than this Obamanation happen regularly.
 
Technically yes but since most people are paycheck to paycheck I don't see how this is supposed to help people who couldn't afford insurance last year anyway.
 
That is essentially a catastrophic care plan, which is a) why it's the cheapest, and b) why it has a high deductible. Not sure why you think Obamacare is the reason such plans exist, as they have existed for many years. I had a catastrophic care plan when I was in law school, because I had no other source of insurance and it was all I could afford. My own insurance (which is a top-of-the-line Blue Cross Blue Shield plan with minimal co-pays, 60% of which is paid for by my employer) has remained the same since Obamacare was implemented.

What's strange is that catastrophic plans are something that conservatives have supported for years as a good mechanism to control health care costs while shielding people from ruinous (catastrophic!) events. To complain about those plans now doesn't make sense.

My insurance is pretty good and it is actually 100% paid for by my employer. (look how fancy I am) Nothing has changed about it on my end since the ACA has been implemented.

You can't use facts and reasoning around the rightwingers on this forum.

Have had one for a while, $10K deductible + HSA. My complaint is going from $325 to $557/mo.

Exactly. But you're preaching to the brain-dead. That it costs more is not the fault of their messiah. They conveniently keep forgetting that people were thrown out of their plans. Those that now have to pay more are just whiners I guess.

Thank you sir, may I have another?
 
I wish people would actually post relevant information like age/sex/location and plan info instead of OMG I HAVE A MILLION DOLLAR DEDUCTIBLE NOW!
 
your obama says get rid of your cable / cell / iCrap bills and use that plus your tattoo / nose bolt fund for your med obamaCare deductible.
