University kills insurance plan for students over Obamacare provisions
Campus Reform ^

Posted on 07/26/2012 10:45:40 AM PDT by oliverdarcy

A Lutheran University in Minnesota has announced they will cancel a voluntary insurance plan for students rather than comply with a recent Health and Human Services (HHS) mandate.

In a letter to the campus community, vice president of Gustavus Adolphus College cited an unspecified HHS mandate as the reason for cutting students from the service.

“Recent changes to student health plan regulations and the Affordable Care Act issued by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) have resulted in our reconsideration of offering a voluntary health plan to Gustavus students,” wrote JoNes VanHecke in a letter recently forwarded to Campus Reform by a student. “The result is that Gustavus will discontinue offering any health care coverage for students,” said VanHecke.

Everything’s going according to the Obama/Romneycare plan.

This was the design of ObamaCare all along. Once enough places drop coverage, there will be a need created for a public option which will then proceed to run alternative options out of business.

The only way to prevent this is to kill ObamaCare and not try to tinker with fixing it.

Gustavus Adolphus College is just another organization joining the huge chorus proclaiming the 0Bamma lied to each and every American when he said you could keep your health plan.

This is what socialists bring, destruction, and false promises. They make everything equally terrible.

Yep. Sure takes some folks a slap up the side of the head to get their attention. Or taking away something they thought was their “privilege”.
