How to Protect Yourself From Obamacare

B...b...but wait! He managed his presidential campaign in ’07 and ’08, remember?

Did he actually manage it by himself or did he have some "helpers"?

If he took credit for it, you can be sure someone else did the heavy lifting.

If you want to protect yourself from Obamacare, you could go to work for Harry Reid.

The politically expedient and/or `interest-group driven selective enforcement of laws by the president took center stage this week. This exchange is exceptionally informative (and listen to the lefty Turley at the end).

Speaker of the House John Boehner is discovering — and sharing — the aspects of his new Obamacare insurance plan. “My health insurance premiums are going to double, my co-pays and deductibles triple under Obamacare,” Boehner said during a recent weekly address. “I’m thrilled to death, as you can tell.”

Boehner’s predicament may become commonplace. Sector & Sovereign Research issued a report in early December analyzing health plans offered for 2014. The focus was on individual insurance plans, and if people want to match 2013 coverage to 2014 coverage, the cost to do so will be “substantially more in 2014 than in 2013.”

...In the individual market, the young and old will see the highest deductible increases. A 21-year-old, Sector & Sovereign says, would see an increase in costs of 81 percent; at 64, the increase in cost is 64 percent. For a 40 year old, the increase is more modest in comparison, but is still 29 percent higher.

The subsidies will provide assistance and make health insurance more likely for certain groups, such as those who are 21 years old who have incomes below 200 percent of the federal poverty level. However, when an individual falls outside of the age/income threshold, they become less likely to purchase insurance on the exchange due to the prohibitively high deductible costs. Sector & Sovereign says this is because “health insurance in the market for individually-purchased coverage will offer less value for money in 2014; accordingly these persons are more likely to be uninsured in 2014 than in 2013.”

On Fox News Sunday, Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel was asked about people who want to maintain their current doctor, and if the President’s promise about being able to keep your doctor was truthful. “Yes,” Emanuel said, “If you want to pay more for an insurance company that covers your doctor, you can do that. This is a matter of choice.”

Interesting!!

According to the AP, Sebelius is now demanding that the inspector general investigate. . .uh. . .her own department's contracting practices that she developed.  Meanwhile the networks are a flutter with the fantastic news of the 300,000 that have now signed up for Obamacare (but not paid), even though that is just a tiny fraction of the necessary paying customers needed to keep the boat above water.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama's top health official is asking for an investigation into the administration's botched rollout of HealthCare.gov.

The website was supposed to have been the online portal to insurance coverage under the new health care law, but technical problems turned it into a frustrating bottleneck for millions of consumers. It's working better now after two months of repairs.

Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said in a blog post early Wednesday that she is asking the department's inspector general to investigate the contracting process, management and performance and payment issues that may have contributed to the flawed launch.

The announcement comes as Sebelius heads to Capitol Hill for another round of grilling before the House Energy and Commerce Committee.
