Despite assurances from his insurance broker, and even the President, that it wouldn’t happen, John Hawkins recently learned his health plan has become another casualty of Obamacare.
Hawkins is one of more than 3.5 million Americans (and increasing) who have had their individual health plans canceled because those plans don’t comply with the stringent mandates in the health law.
Once his plan was canceled, Hawkins found that the cheapest comparable plan that met the essential benefits from Obamacare would involve a “substantial price increase.”
In spite of his setback, Hawkins writes he feels lucky the insurance fallout isn’t as bad as some insurance holders have reported.
