Healthcare.gov is fixed!!!

Obamacare insurance website up and running, gives sticker shock to Akron shopper

AKRON, Ohio - An estimated 800,000 people visited the new and improved http://www.healthcare.gov Monday to shop for affordable health insurance. But what one Akron woman got was a bad case of sticker shock.
"I thought it was supposed to help us," Liz Binns said in frustration. "I can't afford it. I cannot afford it."
Binns had been trying to navigate the government's health care website since October to find affordable insurance for her husband, a 60-year-old who has a pre-existing condition and whose job doesn't offer coverage.
What she finally found for him Monday carries a premium of more than $400 a month and a $5,000 annual deductible.

This lady is white. She's racist to question the president. I'm still waiting for my families $2,500.00 in health care savings.

$400/month at age 60 is awesome, I would have been so happy to find a policy for that amount at age 60. Keep in mind the preventive care and screenings are covered (no deductible)

Another success story...

Bob Shlora of Alpharetta, Ga., was supposed to be a belated Obamacare success story. After weeks of trying, the 61-year-old told ABC News he fully enrolled in a new health insurance plan through the federal marketplace over the weekend, and received a Humana policy ID number to prove it.

But two days later, his insurer has no record of the transaction, Shlora said, even though his account on the government website indicates that he has a plan.

“I feel like this: My application was taken … by a bureaucrat, it was put on a conveyor belt and it’s still going around, and it’s never going to leave the building,” he said. “I’ve lost hope. If it happens, great.”

Obama administration officials acknowledged today that some of the roughly 126,000 Americans who completed the torturous online enrollment process in October and November might not be officially signed up with their selected issuer, even if the website has told them they are.

Cost of Health Care Law Is Seen as Decreasing

WASHINGTON — The rollout of President Obama’s health care law may have deeply disappointed its supporters, but on at least one front, the Affordable Care Act is beating expectations: its cost.

Over the next few years, the government is expected to spend billions of dollars less than originally projected on the law, analysts said, with both the Medicaid expansion and the subsidies for private insurance plans ending up less expensive than anticipated.

Economists broadly agree that the sluggish economy remains the main reason that health spending has grown so slowly for the last half-decade. From 2007 to 2010, per-capita health care spending rose just 1.8 percent annually. Since then, the annual increase has slowed even further, to 1.3 percent. A decade ago, spending was growing at roughly 5 percent a year.

I've given "time" a couple years to fix my broken down motorcyle that is sitting in my garage with no success. I think the next step is to find an EXPERT that can find his ass with both hands to fix it.

The ACA was passed into law how many years ago? Maybe we need some actual experts to fix the website, but more importantly, fix the law itself which was created by people barely able to wipe their own butts.

Obamacare is here to stay

Winds were calm in the capital on Monday, except in the immediate vicinity of the White House, where gale-force exhalations were blowing out of the West Wing.

After the administration’s claim Sunday that star-crossed HealthCare.gov had been repaired with “private sector velocity,” and the site’s relatively smooth functioning on Monday, Obama administration officials moved with aerospace-sector velocity to celebrate meeting their self-imposed deadline.

I'm doing penance for Home Again.

That black-man is STILL in your White House...And the ACA is moving forward--and succeeding. And all of your whining and Heritage Foundation talking-points aren't going to stop it.

And Boehner and the TeaPublicans are STILL the most unproductive Congress in history.

lol Wait til this lie slaps them in the face again. Can't wait for more disillusioned Americans to see how bent their government is. Somebody better tell them that not only do they have to pay higher premiums they get to pay horrendous amounts to fix the unfixable SNAFU.
