It does not. It blames the red tape of the ACA and the fact that our government is so incompetent. Poor patients ( some of whom can barely speak English) are forced to hire legal aid that they can't afford to get their coverage restored.The article blames the GOP, and so do I. People believe their bs, the main problem with ACA so far, along with their obstruction and fear mongering. Take your guaranteed, affordable care and like it. And pass the gd Schumer/Lindsay Graham with a good SS/ID card and end this crap. I bet this shytte is happening mainly in red states, dupes.Dipshit. Stop being a hack it's annoying.Moral of story: Don't cancel your policy, and don't listen to a-hole GOPers...from your link:Do you twits never read the news?Link to that RW BS?Or the fact that cancer patients that bought coverage in good faith on the exchanges had their subsidies revoked and deductibles quadrupled without warning and explanation....mid treatment.
Cancer Patients Snagged in Health Law's Tangled Paperwork
"When people get that bill for a full-price plan, they panic and they cancel the insurance," said Elizabeth Colvin of Foundation Communities, an Austin nonprofit that serves low-income people. Some worry the problem could undermine the law's insurance markets, now in their third year.
"These problems can grow, and they can contribute to undermining consumer faith in the system, and that could lead to attrition," said Rachel Klein of Families USA, an advocacy group that supports the health law.
Pressured by a Republican-led Congress hostile to Obama's overhaul, the administration is highly sensitive to criticism that some people may be getting benefits they're not legally entitled to. But Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia M. Burwell recently acknowledged the paperwork tangle is more likely to trap the innocent than fraudsters.
Would help if the GOP would allow an immigration bill instead of using it as a wedge issue...great job!!
The issue...
"The government says about 470,000 people had coverage terminated through Sept. 30 last year because of unresolved documentation issues involving citizenship and immigration. During the same time, more than 1 million households had their financial assistance "adjusted" because of income discrepancies. Advocates say "adjusted" usually means the subsidies get eliminated."
Also since I apparently have to point this out to the stupid.
The immigrants were "legal".
