Is a $175 Obamacare premium for a young, healthy student considered affordable?

American media outlets were finally able to track down a mythical creature a person who actually signed up for the Obamacare exchanges online. But that person, Chad Henderson, admitted to the Washington Post that the premium for the plan he enrolled in was $175. Ouch! Wasnt Obamacare supposed to lower premiums? Hendersons going to pay a $175 premium and he wont even receive vision or dental insurance. He has contacts, so not having vision insurance is kind of a bum deal. Henderson, as far as we know a healthy, 21-year-old college student at Chattanooga State Community College who lives in Flintstone, Ga., and works part-time at a day-care center, did not qualify for tax credits to purchase insurance, according to the Post. Without Obamacare, Henderson could have received health insurance for as little as $44.72 on eHealthInsurance.com, according to Michael F. Cannon of the Cato Institute. I cant yet say whether Chads $175 premium is the lowest-cost plan available to him through the Obamacare Exchange, Cannon said. [Im in the process of researching that, and itll probably take a few hours.] But its probably close. Thanks to Obamacares community-rating price controls that take effect in 2014, Hendersons cheapest plan option on eHealthInsurance jumped up to $190.23. http://washingtonexaminer.com/175-premiu…

No insurance on car used to drive child around in?
How can one go about handling the possibility that a child’s non-custodial parent is driving their child in a car with no insurance. Recently, a friend of mine told me that if a parent has a car accident and a child in injured in a car with no car insurance, medical insurance won’t cover expenses. Is this true? If it is, how do you suggest the custodial parent go about asking for proof of insurance from the other parent. The parents don’t get along very well, and the non-custodial parent doesn’t like to talk details with the other parent, even when she tries. My only thought was for her to give him notice of this policy and should something ever happen, try to hold him responsible for all expenses. Still, this does not handle the safety issue at hand. Any ideas? Simply asking the non-custodial parent to show proof would not work. His style would be I don’t have to show you anything."""""

Why Are We Not Reducing Health Care Costs?
The U.S. currently spends 50% more per capita on health care than the next western nation (Norway).

According to the Congressional Budget Office the cost of Obamacare is an additionsl $1.76 trillion over ten years. For those who want to actually solve the universal health care problem, how about adopting one of the European plans noted above and cut our costs by 50%.

Isn’t it time the insurance companies stopped ripping us off?
Just how annoyed am I… I’ve been unemployed for 4 months and receive income based job-seekers allowance,we don’t have enough to live on and finding a job seems harder than ever just now.My car had an engine problem and both the Tax and M.O.T had run out,with so little money coming in I thought it best to do without the car until I get working again so I scrapped it.I called my insurer to freeze my policy and was told that I could only freeze it for 30 days and would still have to pay the monthly 20, then I would have to cancel if I didn’t get another car by the end of the 30 days,cancelling will cost me 90. What the hell,how am I supposed to find the money and isn’t it time these greedy companies were asked to explain why they need to charge ridiculous amounts of money for doing nothing other than posting a letter,they also charge 35 to change the policy onto another car which I find a bit hard to swallow. Why though,why do they have to charge so much in these hard economic times"

Do you agree with Dave Ramsey about child life insurance?
First, watch the website here to get Dave’s viewpoint: https://www.mytotalmoneymakeover.com/?event=displayFreeContent&intContentID=9418 Please listen to the audio before answering. Now, his point that kids don’t need to have coverage to maintain insurability if they get sick seems wrong…if a kid gets a long term disease/illness, they can’t get life insurance right? So specifically: 1) Shouldn’t you have your kids insured to maintain insurability if they get sick (like cystic fibrosis, aids, cancer, etc.) later in life and then can’t get insured?? 2) Does the rider on my policy maintain the insurability or is it different than having a separate policy for the child? Thanks!"

Insurance Adjuster estimate less than what it will cost to fix my car?
I was in a car accident that was not my fault. I was hit from behind on the highway and the person who hit me admitted fault 100%. I have submitted a claim through this persons insurance company. My car was less than 3 months old. I’ve come to terms with diminished value and that it will never be the way it was pre-accident, I’ll never be able to sell it a fair value as it was in an accident, etc. and I’ll just have tp deal with it. (As much as it angers and saddens me!!!) The insurance adjuster came out today and gave me an estimate which I’m pretty sure is unfair. I’m still need to take it to a few body shops to get theirs estimates of what it will cost to fix it, but I want to be proactive….. What happens when the three body shops I plan on going to estimate that its going to cost more than what the insurance adjuster wrote me the check for? What are the next steps to appealling this?

Do car insurance companies know how long I have been a licensed driver for?
When I was younger I remember a distant family member telling me to get my CA state ID as soon as I can because when I get a driver’s license and a car the insurance companies won’t be able to tell which I got first. All they see is when my ID# was assigned to me, and that it will look like I have been a driver longer and get a better rate. I don’ know if this is true. I am getting my first car in about a month and I want to get a good price on insurance. Need more info? I got my California state ID when I was 20 and my CA drivers license when I was 25 and I am 26 now. So there is a big difference of time. I know it sounds kinda dishonest but I have been driving since I was 17, so I do have good driving experience but it might not look that way since I’ve only had my license for a year and a half, when it could look like I have been a good driver for 6 years.
