Georgia Latest State To See Rates Rise Under ObamaCare

July 31, 2013

You can now add the Peach State to the list of places that will soon see higher health insurance premiums thanks to ObamaCare.

According to the Washington Free Beacon:

“The Georgia insurance department compared the cost of insurance within the exchanges to what people pay now for similar coverage, and the rates were going up for every age group, said Jay Florence, an insurance department official under [Georgia Insurance Commissioner Ralph] Hudgens.

‘For an average 25 year-old male, premiums are set to rise 85 to 198 percent within the exchanges, while for a 45 year-old male, premiums will rise 40 to 100 percent, Florence said. A 64 year-old male will pay 18 to 48 percent more under Obamacare’s regime.”

Georgia now becomes yet another state whose prices are going up as ObamaCare is implemented, joining Ohio, Indiana, and California among others.

It’s clear this “train wreck” is about to hit Georgia families very soon.
