Health Care gov is not free. Obama tends to lie. If you like your doctor you can keep your doctor if you like your insurance you can keep your insurance. Is is 2016 yet? Feel better and I hope it works out.

The website for healthcare.gov is atrocious and riddled with technical problems. The alternative of enrolling on the phone will take many many many hours of waiting and other technical snafus. But with persistence day after day after day, I was able to enroll. Free? LOL. This policy is costing me just under $1100 per month in premiums.

 

Nothing in life is free (read "OPM").

 

Good luck.

Obamacare was a nightmare for me.  Nothing is free.  If you don't file a tax return you won't get the tax credits and subsidies.  That's what they told me.  My premium would have been 330/month.  I filed an exemption because I'm on SSDI and can't afford it.  If you don't have insurance or don't get an exemption, you'll owe them a penalty.  It's a big money grab scam to make the insurance companies rich, IMO.

Hi miss becky, im sorry to hear about your troubles you had with obamacare too. It seems to hurt those who cant afford it the most. $330 a month is very costly with that kind of money you could be making payments on an economy car . Im not filing a fax return im unemployed since my illness began in eary 2012

I have a fairly good understanding of that chaotic mess called the Affordable Care Act, aka, Obamacare.  I almost had a stroke dealing with that whole effing mess.  Nothing affordable about it.  Or it might be at first when they reel you end then they'll punch you in the gut down the road when the premiums, deductibles, copays, etc.  rise.  Lets not forget all the millions of Americans who are going to lose money when they file their tax returns this year because of the penalty for not enrolling in some insurance.  What an evil enterprise, that Obamacare act.  maybe you can get Medicaid?  I wasn't eligible for that either.

i saw on the cheapest obamacare coverage i can get is like around $150 a month its real shitty (excuse my language ) you have to pay alot out of pocket until you reach a high dollar ammount to get partial coverage ehh  i always thought democrats were supposed to help the poor its really going to stick it to them ! when i first heard of obamacare a few years ago i thought it was great since i thought it was going to be like socialized heatlh care like how canada has . im still going to try to get medicaid when its doubtfull since i dont have any children or i dont have ssi disability

You can qualify for medicaid without being on disability and without children.  I'm sure you'll qualify.

Hi:

 

My brother tried it as he is a project worker and does not receive health care benefits. After two months of getting nowhere, he got his own private insurance. Then a couple of months later he tried and got someone, so he signed up for that. He shouldn't have bothered as he got the same insurance for the same monthly charge both with his old insurance and the government insurance. Sound like a mess to me. Lucky me. Since I am on disability, the state pays for my insurance all of my co-pays and my medication. So I spend NADA on these things. I haven't paid a doctor a single dime for the past 5 years. The State even paid for my knee surgery, which costs $20,000. No wonder our taxes are so high here.

I signed before the original deadline, and it worked fine.

the federal government won't give you medicaid until you spend down all your assets.  you have to be completely tapped out financially and living on the edge of homelessness before they'll give you health insurance.  That's how messed up these United States are.  If you own another vehicle, you can forget about getting medicaid.  If you have money in the bank, forget about qualifying for medicaid or food stamps or anything.  They want you so poor, you'll have to beg on the streets for help when they turn off your electricity, gas, etc. and get kicked out of your home because you can't pay your bills because you're living on the edge each month.  This world wants the poor to live under so much tremendous stress, it kills us.  Evil, rotten, almight dollar.  Everything is about money.  Money makes the world go round, on and on.  No money and you die a slow agonizing death from the stress of not having enough.  How do you buy a new car when the one you have is old and will keep breaking down?  when you're living with nothing each month with no money in the bank?  How do you afford your car insurance?
