People with pre-existing conditions will still find have to be underwritten and will pay a lot for insurance once they hit medicare age.
People with pre-existing conditions do not pay any more in Medicare premiums than anyone else in Medicare does. Heck, just being 65 is a pre-existing condition. With the Obamacare rules, no one pays more now - for any policy, anywhere, anytime. There no longer is medical underwriting. The only things that matter in setting rates are where you live, your age and your tobacco use.

Yeah, pretty much EVERYONE aged 65 has at least one "pre-existing" condition.
Unresolved technical problems on HealthCare.gov could lead to a rude surprise at the doctor's office next month for patients who think they successfully used the website to sign up for health insurance. They may find they're not insured after all.

...insurance companies are still getting information on their would-be customers that is garbled and incomplete, and in some cases they are getting no information at all. President Barack Obama's administration is scrambling to repair the faulty system, but scant time remains until the Dec. 23 deadline for consumers to choose a health plan that will be in place Jan. 1.
The result could be an untold number of consumers remaining uninsured despite completing the enrollment process -- another embarrassing chapter in the rollout of the Affordable Care Act, Obama's signature health care reform law.
This was the information I was given from a Plan F provider. The rate was much higher with the pre-existing condition. And you do need to be underwritten if you have issues such as kidney disease according to the insurance broker I spoke with.

I got a quote, much higher with the pre existing condition than without. Plan F. Medigap...maybe that is the difference.
