We lost our HMO Blue and have only two options now. A HSA and PPO. We went with the HSA with the lower monthly cost and a $2500 deductible before any kicks in. And I work for a $19 billion company. Thank you ACA.

Sounds like your companies are using using the law as an excuse to screw you. My insurance went up the usual couple of percent for the year.
Up boss probably make who ever left pay 90% nedt yesr. So kooking for new job again. I ak for compay making profit bit as employy i need money for work other wise why be productive?
Had this as well but deductibles went up for specialist visits.Sounds like your companies are using using the law as an excuse to screw you. My insurance went up the usual couple of percent for the year.

Over the past several years the insurance company has held my employer hostage...either put up with reductions in benefits or face double-digit percentage increases. To my employer's credit, our cost share has remained fixed for several years...but our benefits have eroded to just that required under Mass. law. This erosion of benefits has been going on long before ACA kicked in. Now the claim is that ACA is the reason...right...
And I have had a $2000 individual and $4000 family deduction for several years now. Really stings financially when a few family members get injured like last year...and other stuff happens like the year before...

What happened to the affordable health care act?
Guessing that's the source of the increase right there...and do you really have a choice to go into the open market since in that case you would be on the hook for the entire premium.I wirk in 10113 which is a high high end zip code but i dont make much money by boss does. I was paying a lot less with more benfits with last years plan. Also boss was paying 80% of insurnace now he is paying 50%. April 15 was last enrollement in Affordale Act now i cant enroll in that. .
I'm patient. I think as participation continues to rise, costs will come down and better options and plans will open up. I think the current pain is merely an over-reaction from the private insurance market as they adjust to the new normal of semi-public healthcare insurance.
Feel free to flame me for that opinion. I'll bump this thread in five years and I'll either be right or I'll eat crow.
