Yes and I have never been told it was inadequate/substandard.
It has been working for us for 11 years, now they are forcing us to change our policy. For the same coverage we will be paying $14,000 a year more, for my family of 3.
If we go with the same premium cost, our coverage is minimal, more substandard then what we have now.
You pay $14K+ a year for auto insurance?! That is insane!
Ah, you should but you don't. If ACA fails it'll take the insurance companies with it. There is no going back. And then in the resulting chaos a workable solution will emerge. Probably a single payer insurance type like Medicare for all.
The more you people fight ACA the quicker single payer gets here.
No way the ACA can be fixed. It is not even insurance anymore, but a government benefit for those that get the subsidies. The only course now is to let the ACA anger so many people that the GOP, and hopefully conservatives, take over the senate and keep the house next year. Then let's see King Obama veto all of the changes that will be voted on by congress. That would doom the democrats for 2016 and the ACA could finally be put to death.

You keep hoping, it is gonna be funny to watch you guys try to figure what went wrong in 2014 after the election like you all were doing after the election in 2012.
All the men crying about having to cover maternity and other 'female' care.
We women have been covering your prostate and testicular cancer care for years. We don't whine about it. Women have been paying higher premiums for years because being a woman is a pre-existing condition according to most insurance companies.
Healthy babies and mothers are good for the country. If you have to pay an extra $1 a year for it, too bad.
By the way, the people who dropped you are an insurance company...not the gov't. It would take almost nothing for an insurance company to improve their policies to meet federal standards -- like car companies, food companies, and the rest. But they'd rather drop you or sell you something more expensive. So go be mad at the right people instead of blaming all your woes on the President.
I think apples need to be compared to apples. Women also get cancer of the uterus, cervix, ovaries, endometrium, etc.
Getting pregnant and keeping the pregnancy is usually a choice.
Getting glandular cancer or cancer of reproductive organs usually isn't.
So insurance companies just dropped/cancelled policies for no reason? No. They did it because the standards have changed DUE to the community organizer enforcing his ACA.

You may as we'll revert back to selling magic potions and relying on the miracle cures of leaches and everyone handling snakes than to depend on the current crop of tea baggers in congress to do anything constructive.
Ok, Madame Cleo. Look into your crystal ball and tell us who will suffer from what.
Why are Canadian's worried about health care in the United States? Because Canada's health care system sucks. That's why soooooo many Canadian's come to the US for health care.

Which was/is exactly the idea when this debacle started but they knew that it wasn't possible right out of the gate.
I guess this is what's called "step therapy"?
