I just discovered a new tax in ObamaCare...

[4est_4est_Gump]

And I thought, as we were lectured, that the volume of the insured was going to make greater profits for the insurer...

Except that in an audit, my wife's employer learned that I was back in the workforce so they are forcing me out of their plan (even though my 14 year-old gets to stay on it for 12 more years) and into my employer's plan, which is quite an increase in price. I thought I got to keep my insurance. Even my doctor decided to retire early and raise horses.

You are at the top of the slave pyramid!

 

[RobDownSouth]

Yes, I'm sure they're "forcing" you out of the plan. :nods:

I know, I know, that's your story and you're sticking with it.

Congratulations on finding a job, though. That alone puts you head and shoulders above your layabout hardcore unemployed RWCJ friends here.

I am the cornerstone of its foundation...

And the block above me?

You gotta admit your truthiness on this board is more than a little suspect.

Actually, Rob, his truthfulness may not be all that suspect. If my husband opts out of his insurance plan in favor of being covered under mine, I pay an extra
200 $ per month in addition to my premiums. This is not to cover insurance, this is a penalty, as it were, for deciding to keep all our health insurance in one basket. They will, however, waive the penalty if he can prove his employer does not offer insurance.

Yeah, that sounds like my employer's insurance too, it's got four tiers: single, single-parent with kids, full family (spouse not covered through job) and full family (spouse covered through job).

The pricing, however, is solely the insurance company's decision, and has absolutely nothing to do with Obamacare, the Chief's blather to the contrary notwithstanding.

The quicker we get to single payer, the better off everyone will be!!

It's all about perspective. These 'penalties' were no where to be seen pre-Obamacare. So why do our employers suddenly discourage us from covering our spouses by imposing a fee that does not go to cover premiums? To paraphrase an old Clairol commercial, Only the insurance companies and the government know for sure.

This is not a new accusation.

Hmmmm I just had to submit paperwork including tax returns regarding my health insurance plans last week. Never had to do it before. They claim it is to verify my dependents are eligible. My wife does work full time but opts out of her plan to be covered under mine. Guess I'll find out what happens soon.

I disagree, I've had this sort of tiered-coverage since way back in the Dark Days of Dubya™. I'm of the opinion that this is little more than capitalism at work, insurance companies gaming the system to increase profits.

As I said, it's all about perspective. This type of tiered coverage is completely new here in the last 2 years. I found the additional fee offensive, to be honest.

I talk to everybody, for the most part.

Yes, i am crazy.

 

[imalickin]

blah, blah, blah...yada, yada, yada

puke, puke, puke

I have absolutely no idea what I say or talk about.

Just dump me in a hole and cover me with dirt, it time for my eternal dirt nap.

Heil Hitler!

Pig eyed sack of shit.

It always comes back to anal sex for you, doesn't it? No matter what the topic.

Next to Miles, you are the most unlikeable poster on this board. Hell, you may have surpassed Miles.

Even Vetteman posts something clever on occasion.
