Lot"; Plan for Still More Hikes
Obamacare was supposed to lower costs by pooling everyone together, by
creating other efficiencies, and by admittedly overcharging millennials for
healthcare.
Actual results continue to pour in, nearly all of them negative. Today
Gallup reports More Americans Say Health Premiums Went Up Over Past Year.
Nearly three in four American adults (74%) who pay all or some of their
health insurance premiums say the amount they pay has gone up over the past
year. This percentage is up marginally from the 67% who last year said their
costs increased, but it is generally in line with what Gallup has found in
yearly updates since 2003.
These latest data, from Gallup's annual Health and Healthcare poll, come
as many insurers have raised premiums -- as well as deductibles, copays and
coinsurance -- for plans under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Meanwhile,
growth in national spending on healthcare has accelerated, increasing 5.3%
in 2014, according to a report from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services. According to the American Academy of Actuaries, premium costs, in
general, will increase for the next several years because of various market
factors, and Americans should plan for such increases.
Since 2003, the large majority of adults who pay all or some of their
premiums have consistently reported that their costs have gone up. However,
until now, many more said the costs went up "a little" than "a lot." In the
latest poll, the two figures are nearly tied, with 38% saying costs went up
a little and 36% saying a lot. The shift comes from an eight-percentage-
point increase this year in those saying their costs rose a lot, bringing it
to the highest Gallup has measured since first asking the question in 2003. | a**t 发帖数: 3833 | 2 If there were no obamacare, you would have gone back to Canada

当年推这个的时候,我觉得无所谓。反正总统也保证费用不会上涨。结果涨了不少。涨
了也行吧,好像也没见有人开心。
现在想想,这个玩的根本就是金钱游戏。他本来完全应该从降低医疗费用着手的,譬如
增加医生数量,开放更多竞争啥的。
现在唯一能安慰自己当时瞎了眼的呢,是这个跟经济学相关,我下室琐男从来不懂。
不需要经济知识的就好判断了,譬如这次枪击,民主党候选人都在喊控枪。
