Yep, I had a perfectly good plan, that worked fine on a hospitalization I had last January- 80/20 plan, $2,750 deductible. I paid the deductible, then they paid 80% on everything thereafter.
Got a letter, they'll have to cancel me. I knew that was coming, because mine was a Health Savings Account plan, and of course, we can't have those because they make good financial sense for many people. Most comparable plan they're offering me is the same 80/20, premium $608 (up from $408), deductible $4,000 (up from $2,750). They explained the differences- and the ONLY difference is that I now have maternity and pediatric coverage. As a 64 year old male, I don't expect to get pregnant, but I guess you never know.
The Washington state website is apparently working fine- 48,000 folks signed up during the first two weeks, but the bad news is, 87% of them are Medicaid, and will get the insurance for free. Guess that answers the question of whether you can get folks to take free stuff (and vote for you next time). What remains in doubt is whether any of the younger, healthy folks who don't qualify for subsidies, and will face much higher premiums, will buy in. The smart money says no- they'll just pay the fine and be on their merry way.
I took the easy way out- went on Medicare in August.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
