Break Obamacare? For Middle class America Obamacare never worked. Since my company went to an approved ACA plan I pay the same in premiums and pay for all my healthcare up to $10,000, which they just increased to 11,500 for 2017. I am still paying $188/month to the hospital for the gall bladder surgery my wife had last year. I was “lucky” enough to hit the deductible with that one. My son got taken to the hospital in the ambulance in June and I have yet to receive the Bill. They keep renegotiating. In October I was to pay $700. I just got a new claim and they renegotiated for me to pay $962. With insurance like that I can see why so many would rather pay the penalty. I have yet to meet a doctor or nurse who like it for many reasons. They tell of patients that will not come in for serious conditions because they can’t afford the deductible, plus the doctors never know when they are going to get paid or how much.
