Recent data provided by the nation’s largest health insurance companies reveals that a provision of the Affordable Care Act – or Obamacare – is bringing big numbers of the uninsured into the health care insurance system.
And they are precisely the uninsured that we want– the young people who tend not to get sick.
The provision of the law that permits young adults under 26, long the largest uninsured demographic in the country, to remain on their parents’ health insurance program resulted in at least 600,000 newly insured Americans during the first quarter of 2011.
Wellpoint, the nation’s largest publicly traded health insurer with some 34 million customers, reports adding 280,000 new members in the first three months of 2011.

More proof that Obamacare was written to line the pockets of the insurance companies
So it isn't runaway socialism and a take over the healthcare system by the guvment?!?!?
Which is it, were you for the establishment of a national health care system or leading the charge claiming that Obamacare was part of a vast socialist plot?
If u read the California article. The big problem is that United Aetna and Cigna are not included in those rates.
That's like releasing premiums and saying they are affordable and saying your cellular phone choices are tmobile/metro pcs, boost mobile. Pick between them for your cellular coverage.
Missing those big three insurers is like not being allowed to choose ATT and Verizon for coverage. Means tons of providers will not be in network with those plans.
UnitedHealth, Aetna and Cigna are small players now in California's individual health insurance market. More of their business is focused on large employers, where most Californians receive their health coverage. But the companies signaled a wait-and-see approach on these new government-run marketplaces.

Yup, unlike the blues and kaiser they have less to lose both politically and in terms of market share for not playing ball on the exchange rates.
We'll see what happens in 2015 and 2016 as claims experience comes in. They're certainly going out on a limb pricing so far below the Optum numbers (from the SOA study).

Yeah...I read that the Crips and Bloods will join the Wellpoint plan and the Zetas and Northern Mexicans will sign on with Humana...Travelers is getting record numbers of undocumented aliens along with their families signing onto their plan...All the other gangs are still reviewing policies looking for the best deal with other insurers before they sign on...
