They can't. Not without lying. Proof is in the dims scrambling to distance themselves from this abortion.
Before the ACA MY AETNA PREMIUMS KEPT RISING WENT FROM $604 PER MONTH UP TO $708. darn caps. With my new Coventry plan i pay $159.07 per month and i used it recently for a bowel resection and it all worked just fine.
It was legal for me to use the insurance so why not? Aetna was just milking me. When i started with aETNA THE PREMIUM WAS $494 AND WENT UP TO $648 AND THEN 708.

I experienced the same kind of increases back when I had insurance 10 years ago. And I'm in good health, no preexisting conditions, and never once made a claim. Yet every six months it went up like clockwork until it was inching up to $900 a month for really crappy coverage and I was finally priced out of the market entirely. Yet there was no ACA to blame for the ever increasing rates then.
This meme that insurance rates are suddenly rising when they never did before is BS.
If you're male, it's 100% guaranteed that you don't have the same plan, because you didn't have maternity coverage before, but you do now. You also have "baby wellness" and pediatric dental. (Thank God, too! Who knows when a man might end up preggers!)
If you're female with no kids, you likely don't have the same plan, as whatever you have now includes pediatric dental and baby wellness.
These BS "I have the same plan!" claims are pure nonsense. It's nearly impossible for someone to have the exact same plan they had last year and still be in compliance. Please do us all a favor and stop lying, and if you actually think you're telling the truth, educate yourself about the coverage you HAD vs. what you HAVE now, and then come back and correct yourself.
Actually this was never a plan to cover all Americans because the public option was removed from the bill. Had that been included this healthcare plan would have been able to cover all Americans.
Had that been included, it never would have become law. Heck, even the disaster they DID pass almost didn't become law. Took a few extra parliamentary tricks, bribes and promises [later to be broken] to get the monstrosity through.
History is going to look back on how this law was passed - against the will of the people - and it will be seen as a dark moment.

That is a shame, healthcare insurance would have been much better in this country if it included a public option.

I am a female with no dependent children, and my plan right now is more than $700 a month less than the last time I had coverage. And it's a better overall plan, even if it does include things I'll never use, like maternity and baby wellness. It also probably includes vasectomies and penile implants that I'll also never use, but I'm okay with that.
Anyone who thinks that health care financing didn't need to be reformed really has another think coming! This system is not perfect, not by a long shot. But we do have some standardization of plans now. No thinking you were covered for something and finding out you're not. No more pre-existing condition exclusions. These are good things.
I beg to differ. There will be many iffy insurance that signed up in the last 6 months since the rollout. They may think they have insurance but as the example in the man with the $400K hospital bill showed. No one knows for sure, how many people are affected by computer glitches.
If Obama is still extending the March 31st deadline due to computer glitches, than it's still a problem whether you have insurance or no insurance. You get one big bill like the $400K hospital bill. No insurance company will clamor to accept those claims (even though it will eventually be downgraded to around a $60K bill because $400K is the master bill).
Perhaps you can back that claim up with something a bit more credible than "from what I have seen"?
That would be great - maybe if you try, you'll have better luck getting the relevant data from the administration than congress has had. Why do you think they've held off on releasing it?
