Survey: Significant drop in uninsured young adults

The number of young adults without health insurance has dropped significantly, a new survey finds, thanks to a provision of President Barack Obama's health care law allowing them to stay on their parents' plans.

The new Gallup poll findings translate to about 1 million more young adults with health insurance.

.....coverage for young adults has proven to be a popular and relatively low-cost benefit that families were eager to sign up for in these days of prolonged school-to-work transitions.

DaGoose.....

I know you are smarter than that.
Lets be real here.......2 provisions kicked in FIRST....

Children under 26 years of age get to be on their parents plan FREE OF CHARGE
Pre Existing conditions are no longer acceptable reasons for denial

Gee...ya think anyone is going to say..."wow, those two provisions suck ass"

Do you think it was an accident for those two to kick in first and the "negative" provisions slated to kick in AFTER the 2012 election?

How about this...

Do you like the fact that your children get to be on your policy free of charge until they are 26 years old?......

Answer:

Yes.

Do you like the fact that you can not be denied insurance due to pre existing conditions?

Answer:

Yes

So based on those two provisions ....sure it is preferred by all...

But soon the questions will be...

Do you mind that your premiums have gone up by 20%?

Do you mind being told by the government that you MUST spend your hard earned money on purchasing something you may never actually need?

Do you mind that the deficit is affected to thre tune of about 500 mrillion dollars even though you were promised that it was deficit neutral?

Do you mind having to switch your doctors becuase your insurance company can no longer afford to work with your existing doctors?

I bet the responses wont be as favorable.

That's great ain't it. Adults a few years short of 30 can depend on mommy and daddy for health insurance. What happens when they grow up?

the law will say they must buy something they very well may not be able to afford...nor may never need.

My 24 year old son ius back on our policy....but in the meantime, he has never made a claim on his original policy...other than for his annuals.....but that should never be part of insurance anyway....for insurance ius INSURANCE.....for the unexpected....

Instead, my son was paying $4000 a year to cover his $300 annual visit.

Wait till the rest of Obamacare kicks in.

Wait till those with insurance see what its going to cost them to cover all those without.

Wonder if Goosey will be so high on Obamacare then.

 

[blastoff]

Did they allow the parents to apply for ObamaCare waivers like a lot of companies and unions have done? Costs were gonna be so ball busting they were allowed to delay the pain for a while.

Just shows you the respect the democrats have for the American People...

1) They push through a bill that is by no means viewed favorably by the majority of American People...and are forced to use an unconventional means...one that has been used before but NEVER for a bill of this magnitude and with such low favorable ratings

2) They march through the plaza celebrating with an oversized gavel in front of thousands of Americans begging that the law not be passed

3) They implement the most favorable provisions first...holding off on the rest that was deemed UNFAVORABLE until after the 2012 election.

Amazing that there are people that support such unethical behavior.

Hey lefties...what is it like to support people that veiw you as naive and irrelevant?

Guess what? WE'RE ALREADY PAYING FOR THOSE W/O HEALTH CARE.

If someone who can afford HC chooses not to buy a policy goes to the ER the hospital is REQUIRED to treat them. And what happens? They can sue to get back a little of the costs but you and I will have to pay the rest of his or her bill.

By requiring one to purchase HC coverage he or she will have to the personal responsibility (remember those words?) to shoulder their fair share of the costs.

What do you have against requiring personal responsibility? I thought conservatives believed in that.

So as a 22 year old college student and you are barely making it financially, you should not take advantage of getting medical insurance on your parents plan....man up and stop getting "free" shit you socialist loving commie.

You sir are an idiot. An idiot or a hack. Your choice.

your "kid" can get on your tricare now until he is 26. Its a 500 buy in and then its a little over 100 a month. That aint to bad and you can thank Obama for this.

yes....but I also know what it will do to my premiums come a year down the road.

When someone offers me $500 today but I have to return $5000 2 years from now, I am inclined to not want to thank him.

But thanks for your input.

yes...you and I will have to pay the rest of the bill.

We have been doing that for years...and I am fine with it as it is designed to help those that can NOT afford healthcare insurance and you will always have some people gaming the game...sort of like welfare...most NEED IT and prefer not to be on it...but we will not stop the system becuase of the few that dont need to be on it but take it anyway.

Why do you refer to the few that game the insurance game (with the ER) but when you talk about welfare you only refer to those that need it and not those that game the game?

Keep consistant goose...you are too good to play the Truthmatters hypocrisy game.

Premiums were going up regardless..and at a much faster rate. Additionally this whole deal is a big boon to HMOs who actually like the mandate but hate the inability to kick people for pre-existing conditions.

And the Deficit Neutral thing actually because a deficit negative after 10 or so years when the savings kick in.
