Smh. Why do you keep embarrassing yourself trying to make a narrative fit that doesn't fit based on the timeline of chart you produced?
Haha, this from the person who tried to suggest that people were uninsured because they rolled over their policies which by definition WOULD NOT mean they were uninsured..
Why dont you just admit you were wrong, I'd have far more respect for your babbling talking points which were ridiculously false..
You are just locked into a false narrative. That has no supporting evidence, if you'd think rationally.
I'm waiting for you to educate me on why the numbers of the uninsured skyrocketed months prior to ACA kicking in..
if its not due to ACA then what caused it? Your babble that it was people rolling into new policies is a complete lie, and ridiculous conside they wouldnt be uninsured..
havent you been provided with the talking points yet?
I received a cancellation notice. I went to the exchange, and did some comparison shopping. I ended up with a similar plan, same deductible, same network, but with no exclusions, or lifetime limits. I had the option to keep my old plan, I chose not to. The cost was $10 more than I paid last year, no subsidies. I would guess many people who received the notices bought new policies directly from their insurer, estimates are 8 million bought through insurers rather than the exchanges for 2014. I did end up with the same company, but I liked being able to compare the plans being offered.
Who knows, but the idea that everyone who received a cancellation notice bought on the exchanges is a lie. Especially because it was extensively reported that the administration allowed those people with cancelled policies to keep those policies.
It is just going around in a circle with people who don't want to know what they don't want to know.
They don't want to know what happened to people who received those cancelled notices. So they pretend that the administration didn't extend those policies and thus a huge percentage of those people who received those cancellation notices simply kept the same insurance. This is objective reality was widely reported everywhere that the administration did this.
They pretend that many people weren't simply transferred to another policy.
These people are dedicated to a fantasy based understanding of what has occurred and will resist any intrusion of reality upon that narrative.
If you mean moving from one quality policy to another, you are correct. If you mean going from stop gap junk (the type now illegal) to an ACA plan, you're wrong. Stop Gap isn't worth the paper it is printed on.
Actually stop gap polices apparently are still legal. Also discriminating against pre existing conditions are also legal.
These are plans United is still selling off the exchanges.
I have attached snapshot. Notice the $250k limit policy. These plans are still available as if April 17th 2014.
Stop gap junk plans apparently aren't illegal.
I don't see the news media picking up on this story.

The sad thing is they prey on the stupid. When they pay at all! We had a local one that was 100% scam, not even paying to the meager limits of their plan.

I dont think ANYONE has stated that everyone who had a cancellation bought on the exchange.
The fact that the administration stated they would allow people to keep their policies is meaningless because insurance companies follow the law, not one guys "word" that it would be accepted.
YOU are the one saying that policies being cancelled were rolled into new policies and had nothing to do with the new signups..
