I assume this post is supposed to be sarcasm, but speaking personally I have $85 a month more in my pocket as a result of the Humana Gold plan I picked up after the ACA came into effect.

No subsidy, but my premium dropped 43 a month and my prescription costs dropped around 40 a month as well. Maybe I'm just lucky.

Mine for my family of five went from $432 a month to $1055 a month and my deductible went up.


Edit for accuracy-Deductible stayed exactly the same.

Have you checked out the network? Do you know which services, procedures, and drugs that are no longer covered?

Are you single? How old are you? Dependents? Getting subsidies? Give us some perspective on how/why it is "better in every measurable way"?

And what are your thoughts on my $7476 annual increase without getting better benefits?

Interesting.
So Obamacare required your insurance provider to cover extra services, eliminate preexisting exclusions, etc. and your rate went down?

If true, that should rate right up there with Our Lady of Fátima as a modern miracle.
Count me as dubious.

Only way those numbers could work is if you were highrisk/old and are benefitting from 3:1 Obamacare caps placed on highest to lowest risk cost ratio. Meaning the young healthy folks here are paying part of your premium.
