Obamacare premium increases

May 24, 2017

The Department of Health and Human Services released new information cataloguing premium increases under Obamacare by state from 2013 to 2017, and it’s not pretty.

Nationally on average, individual market premiums more than doubled during the same time period.

Every state using Healthcare.gov experienced increases in premiums, and 62% of states using Healthcare.gov saw premiums double since 2013.

“While Republicans are hard at work trying to protect families from Obamacare’s crushing weight, Democrats are casting blame for failing to fix the disastrous law they passed. Democrats should take responsibility for their failure to provide the affordable healthcare they promised and work together with Republicans to clean up this mess.” -NRCC Spokesman Jack Pandol
