Health care overhaul insures 2.5 million more young adults

[J.E.D]

More good news as a result of the new health care law. Go on, Republicans, tell these 2.5 million people that you want to take away their health insurance.

(CBS/AP) Since the new health care overhaul law took effect a year ago, 2.5 million young adults have gained insurance, according to a new report from the Obama administration.

The report - published Wednesday by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services - shows an increase 2 1/2 times larger than government and private estimates from earlier this year. The previous estimate was that 1 million Americans ages 19-25 had gained coverage.

Administration officials said they now have more data and are slicing the numbers more precisely than the government usually does in an effort to pinpoint the new law's impact.

Under the health overhaul, children can remain on their parents' health insurance plans until they turn 26. Families have flocked to sign up young adults making the transition to work in tough economic times.

According to the government survey, nearly 36 percent of Americans ages 19-25 - more than 10.5 million people - were uninsured in the third quarter of 2010, before the law's provision took effect. Most workplace health plans started carrying the provision Jan. 1, 2011. By the second quarter of 2011, the proportion of uninsured young adults had dropped to a little over 27 percent, or about 8 million people.

The 2.5 million difference can only be the result of the health care law, administration officials said, because the number covered by public programs like Medicaid went down slightly.

Well in a liberal household the kids sponge off the parents for a long time.
So when this law was written they knew exactly what age the cutoff would be.

Asshole, I understand it.. but please explain to me how a 26 yo is a child? I mean, we have all these OWS street shitters running around acting like children, but at age 26, you should be able to take care of yourself, and that includes having health insurance and not having mommy and daddy covering you. What next? 30 yo children? 35 yo children?

This didn't fix anything... just created a new class of 20 somethings that consider themselves children that must be taken care of. I'm guessing you're one.

Yeah, right, says the Kaiser Foundation So, how did Kaiser account for the fact that health care premiums have been rising more and more every year, even before Obama took office?

Moron. Did I write the article? No, I didn't. And what do you care if parents want to continue to pay for their 26 yr old sons or daughters to stay on their health insurance? The law doesn't force the parents to keep them on their plans; it ALLOWS them to keep them on their plans. Like I said, what explains your inability to understand the law?

 

[Truthmatters]

How about we drastically reduce the cost by not allowing a middleman to make tons of profit off the sick?

Why are you pretending health care costs were NOT ALREADY rising before the bill?

Yoyu should read up on the notion of actuarial tables. For that matter, you should read up on pretty much anything.
