"If you like your health care plan, you can keep your health care plan." This is the main sales of President Obama talking points "affordable medical method", this is never really - many separate purchase medical insurance plan covering 14 million americans learn now.
As Kaiser health news coverage, the insurance company shall give notice of cancellation of individual market row, tell the user they have new plan, in 2014 began to change. Here's why:
1. Some old plans do not conform to the requirements of the new, in ACA. Since 2014, most health plans will cover 10 "basic health benefits," from the maternal health care in hospital, children's dental care. Most will have limit out-of-pocket costs no more than $6350 individual plan, or $12700 in family planning. They must meet the minimum "actuarial value", usually refers to the population in a standardized, the insurance company will have to expect to pay at least 60% of the cost of health care by the project participants.
If your current plan does not meet these requirements, is likely to be cancelled. Because you get the new plan will provide a more comprehensive coverage, it may be more expensive, especially if you're young, healthy, is not in conformity with the premium subsidies.
2. Some existing plan especially sick participants pool, so the insurance company will have to end their Kaiser, points out that some insurance companies seem to be aimed at the existing "guarantee" policy cancelled. These policies are designed to attend with pre-existing conditions, who are likely to have particularly high health care costs. Assuming that the normal work of the exchange website, these people may be better plan outside anyway.
Is arguably even more surprising is that so much of the existing in the individual market plan did not cancel. Since 2014, there will be two independent health insurance market: one is through the exchange of Obamacare, a business outside of the business. Most insurance (for example, insurance companies offer insurance pre-existing conditions, whether at a fixed price) rules would apply to individual communication and close plan. But the ACA provide subsidies to help individuals to buy coverage will only provide exchange program.
Provide internal communication only if subsidies, laws and regulations are mostly the same, why would any insurance companies offer an unplanned exchange, and why would anyone buy outside? There are several reasons:
1. Not everyone can get subsidies, anyway, you can only receive government subsidies, insurance premium in order to help you, if you earn less than 400% of the federal poverty line, it was in 2013, $45960 for a single adult. If you do not conform to the subsidies, you may be indifferent whether you plan on trade or sale. Larry levitt, the Kaiser family foundation, insurance experts point out that in individual insurance market, some people may be more willing to continue to use the same insurance company or insurance agency work, therefore may want to skip the communication.
2. Original state plan can only be sold outside communication. Plan before March 2010 already exists, at the request of the ACA. For example, they don't provide free preventive care and welfare, they can implement the annual quota. For these reasons, my grandfather's plan might be cheaper new plan, may want to stay in their current participants. Their communication, to do so will have to purchase.
3. You don't need to deal with exchange website noncommutative purchase programme. In the long run, once the exchange website works well, it shouldn't be a big problem. But now, be helpful for the exchange program is a bigger, you don't have to deal with Healthcare. Gov to buy them.
