Besides, this is about a woman's adventure getting out of ACA. What does Hannity have to do with it?
It's the (lack of) journalistic integrity that's displayed. I don't for one second believe that calling BCBS directly to cancel the coverage wouldn't have worked immediately.
Maybe, instead of calling the ACA, she should have contacted the insurance carrier.
This is like a story of a stupid, stupid person who buys a wine-of-the-month membership through Amazon, and then, when she decides to cancel, doesn't contact the wine-of-the-month club. Instead, she demands that Amazon contact them and cancel for her.
She bought insurance on-line. When you cancel insurance, you call the insurance company.
If you enroll via the Obamacare website you also have to notify the government.
But they already said they don't have anything in place to do that right now so contact them later.
It's all just made up, right? Obamacare is just cruising along with no problems?
Look at this "made up story." MNSure is so messed up that a woman on it couldn't get her diabetic son's insulin filled. Her story was covered in the paper, and luckily for her, a nice stranger stepped in and gave her $350 to get the prescription. Obamacare has reduced people to having to meet strangers in Home Depot parking lots to get money to keep their child alive.
What about the people whose stories don't make the papers? Every day there is a new story of a cancer patient not able to get treatment, cancelled surgeries, cancelled appointments because people can't prove they have coverage or their new health insurance doesn't cover what their cancelled policy did.
It's not a Fox News conspiracy, it's the reality and it's being printed every day in papers across America.
Obamabots have blinders on.
There is a loophole not generally known that I have been promoting to get around ACA. In short, those that had plans they like can get them back. Obamabots will decry them as substandard. In short go to a health insurance company and get covered for a year less a day. That way, you don't have to have all those extra goodies Obama thinks is necessary for you to have like a boy needing maternity plans and such for a fraction of the cost. After the plan runs out, resign 24 hours later for another year less a day.

"We are programmed to receive.
You can check-out any time you like,
But you can never leave! "
lol +1.
But it was easy to get into Hotel CA. This would be like spending hours and hours trying to get through their online reservation system, repeatedly calling the reservation line for help, never getting through until the last second. And then you get their, they have no record of your reservation. You wait hours in a crowded lobby. You finally get to your room only to find out it cost twice as much and doesn't have a bathroom or even a bed.
And now they won't let you check out.
And the government is fining you for not staying at their crappy hotel. And they've closed the Embassy Suites where you used to stay. And you're paying for the guy down the hall to stay for free.
It's the (lack of) journalistic integrity that's displayed. I don't for one second believe that calling BCBS directly to cancel the coverage wouldn't have worked immediately.
So, a person writing down a woman's story is not having integrity? And she did call BC/BS directly. She got nowhere. She had to drive there with the account numbers and her financial data to convince them she was enrolled. That did the trick
ACA is so dysfunctional, much like the idiot's administration.
Obamacare has a disenrollment process.
But it looks like you can't just disenroll because you don't like it.
From the Obamacare bill:
§ 152.15 Enrollment and disenrollment process.
…
(b) Disenrollment process.
(1) A PCIP must establish a disenrollment process that is approved by HHS.
(2) A PCIP may disenroll an individual if the monthly premium is not paid on a timely basis, following notice and a reasonable grace period, not to exceed 61 days from when payment is due, as defined by the PCIP and approved by HHS.
(3) A PCIP must disenroll an individual in any of the following circumstances:
(i) The individual no longer resides in the PCIP service area.
(ii) The individual obtains other creditable coverage.
(iii) Death of the individual.
(iv) Other exceptional circumstances established by HHS.
If you enroll via the Obamacare website you also have to notify the government.
But they already said they don't have anything in place to do that right now so contact them later.
You cancel the insurance with the insurance company.
Then you let the ACA website know, just in case the insurance company fails to notify them.
It's not rocket science.
This woman's story is simply an exposition in STUPIDITY.
This is really sad. I can't believe that people are still defending obamacare, acting as if it is a wonderful thing. It has been one problem after another with no end in sight. I don't understand why people choose to be blind to these things.
