It keeps going from bad to worse.
AmeriHealth of New Jersey announced on Tuesday that it won’t renew 2013 health plans that are Obamacare non-compliant, Save Jerseyans, meaning the grand total of New Jerseyans slated to lose their individual or small-group health insurance plans in 2014 has climbed to approximately 680,000.
Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield reached the same conclusion earlier this month.
They’ve all been boxed in by costly mandates embedded in the new health care law as well as the President’s late-in-time partial waiver that left regulators and insurance companies without sufficient time to recalculate 2014 rates.
The fact that President Obama’s approval rating is now reaching Nixonian depths isn’t the surprising part; it’s a sad commentary that it took THIS long for sooo many of you to wake up. Millions didn’t lose potentially critical medical coverage when Tricky Dick lied…
And yet amazingly, the DCCC is attacking potentially vulnerable GOP incumbents like New Jersey’s Frank LoBiondo by criticizing their repeal efforts? Really?
They could stand to listen to George Norcross’s advice but I hope they don’t.
“They’ve all been boxed in by costly mandates embedded in the new health care law as well as the President’s late-in-time partial waiver that left regulators and insurance companies without sufficient time to recalculate 2014 rates”
That’s funny. Insurance companies had over 3 years to figure out their 2014 rates. This is typical anti-ACA propoganda.
