Poll:If the Healthcare Insurance Subsidy was removed, would it affect you & family?
Poll, Please only respond to the poll if you use the ACA for health insurance.
Currently a lot of people are in the ACA because they get a subsidy based on their income. For my family if it was no more, we simply could not afford to buy healthcare insurance here in the USA. Thankfully, We do not qualify for Medicaid (I really feel for those folks).
The subsidy is rarely discussed, just Medicaid expansion and the high insurance costs are in the headlines. Yes our insurance this year went up, BUT so did our subsidy and the total cost to us per month was actually less than last year. Yes we did have to change our GP, but all our specialists were in plan. I would rather change my doc and have one as opposed to not having any insurance at all.
I am curious ho many other folks here are in a similar boat.
