...FACT.....the new Affordable Health Care Act ( AHCA) will only allow
a 3 times swing from lowest to highest premium for ANY class........
Currently a 8 times swing is generally used.
FOR EXAMPLE....
A 70 yr old male pays 8 times as much $ premium as a 21 year old male.
70 year old male pays $800.........21 year old pays $100 for same coverage.
NEW RULE...under AHCA...as written...
...70 year old male rate can only be 3 times the 21 year olds' rate.
GUESS who is going to have a MAJOR premium increases.
.....increase the 21 year olds' premium to $ 266. (up from $100)...
the insurance company will be able to charge the 70 year old the $800.
Some of those in Congress were told there IS a Forest out there...
they replied ... "no way.....there is only a bunch of trees".
