About 3.4 million have paid for Obamacare According to insurance company statistics about 80-85% of people enrolled have paid their first premium.
20%-15% have not paid then? That's pathetic. I think the the default rate on subprime mortgages peaked at 23%. Statistically, that's not the company you want to be in.
It was an all time high for the health sector. How is that for a baseline comparison? Also, the article provided no correlation to those other industries, but yes, Obama's policies are not working there either.
No worries who needs jobs we got Uncle Sam. A side net Hospice House in Midland and Odessa are closing due to cuts in Medicare shifted to Obama care Very sad wonderful Drs and nurses that gave terminal and respite relief to families.
The reason Medicare is trying to cut spending is due to money shifted to the ACA. It plainly states changes by the Obama admin.
So would Medicare be better off paying for normal care (ER visits, medications, Dr visits) for those additional 33 days on average? I bet not. So is this article advocating "death panels?" No doctor can exactly diagnose the number of days any patient will live except for those on life preserving machines.
Is this technically a "law" still? Obama makes yet another arbitrary change. The Link Why not just enroll everyone who has a social security number and let the smart ones opt out? It would be much quicker.
Every prior year counted. Are you disputing the numbers or just stretching every possible objection to the well documented side effects of the law?
So I guess we will be able to" keep" that estimate as truthful just like we were expected to believe all the other BO Lies People who actually believe this are to be pitied I doubt pharm believes it
Good article Mr Fiesta. Pompous *** that he is, Obama was doing a victory dance yesterday declaring that 7 million signed up. Of course, there's this:
Based upon this study by Rand, 27% of the 7 million were previously uninsured. This makes newly insured at roughly 1.68 million. Considering not all of those have paid their first premium, hardly a success by any measure. The Link
I missed your link. Sorry - thanks for posting. Also, people underestimate the mix of enrollees. The lower numbers might actually be a good thing - lower tax payer bailout.
No worries. Wait until there are not as many doctors or hospitals, then you'll see plenty of taxpayer bailout.
I went to ACA website out of curiosity (as I would assume many others did) and entered all my information except my social security number. Would I have been counted in the enrollment number total? I have heard at least one instance where a Medicare recipient was automatically registered by the state onto ACA without their authorization. They received a letter saying this had been done for them and they could enter the website and complete the application. I take this move as a way to obtain the last minute registration numbers that have been reported.
Who really knows what the real number is? Most analysts place the net new insured around 1 million. If any one of the IT people on this board were in charge of developing their company's customer database and had no way of knowing much about who had enrolled or how they paid, they would be fired. I dare anyone of them to argue differently.
