That amount – $328 per month – is the national average for the mid-tier “silver” premium based on HHS calculations for approved plans in 48 states. The challenge, of course, is that like all of healthcare itself, your mileage will vary.
Both individual and family insurance rates will vary dramatically based on a host of variables. Those variables – age, marital status, geographic location and income – will each have a significant impact on the final monthly amount.
The most difficult single component in the equation is income – which determines the amount of Federal subsidy any given taxpayer will receive toward the purchase of coverage on the individual state run public exchanges.

that’s my question; per individual?? husband/wife?? full family??
link???
Oh, I agree. The easiest course would have been to do nothing. The day is soon coming when employers will no longer be able to afford providing insurance to their employees. Certainly not if the expect to compete globally. Once employer provided health insurance became extinct, people would have entered the insurance marketplace on their own.
I saw that, too, then read this (below). Not sure what to believe!

HEY LISTEN GUYS!!! A simple search revealed that HealthCare.gov, Will Sheehan, and Penelope Kay are all fictitious. There are no such people on facebook. This is another urban myth being banded about to get people up in arms about Obamacare.
Please, please, please refrain from propagating these lies and check everything before reposting them for all to see.

If they drop that, insurance will become more affordable for all. And, it will be cheaper for companies to create jobs here in Amerika. That is one of the main complaints from companies, the cost of healthcare.
Obamacare is “TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION.”
Obamacare has nothing to do with care, health or medical treatment.
Obamacare has everything to do with a mandatory insurance that everyone must buy at the point of the Federal gun.
Obamacare Medical Insurance premiums are under the control of the IRS.
These insurance premiums can be raised every year by the IRS with no involvement by Congress.
Thus, all the present and future Democrat rulers have to do is tell the IRS how much taxpayer dollars need to be forcefully extracted from the taxpayers, and the IRS will extract the money for them.
Hence, Obamacare Insurance is “ taxation without representation” that Traitor John Roberts of THE NINE SUPREMES has ruled it to be above the control of the US Congress, and it will stay until Obamacare is ABOLISHED!
With that kind of deductible ($13,800), the policy holder is essentially paying premiums every month for nothing. They might as well flush that $400 a month down the toilet.
There are going to be more people without insurance now than before Obamacare came on the scene. The idea of the New World Order is to decrease the population of the world. There are about 7 to 8 billion on the earth now. I read that the NWO bunch thinks the earth should only have about 500 million humans so that Mother Earth as they all it will survive. So, once in charge, killing the old and abortion will rule as they kill off people. That is the plan. It is in writing and many of them have said it.
I was looking at DU - someone was THRILLED to find out their health insurance was FREE - and it was medicare! and said it was the VERY FIRST TIME they ever had insurance? Insane?
The other DU’ers corrected and assumed it was Medicaid but you know you qualify for Medicaid with or without Obamacare - you are either dirt poor and qualify for welfare or you don’t!
All part of the plan. Put in something, so bad, that people will finally give in and accept a Single Payer system, which is the ultimate goal.
Yep. Once people are faced with the true cost of the insurance, they’ll shop accordingly. Insurance rates will come down. Hopefully it doesn’t take too long. I’m guessing 15 or 20 years left for employer-based health coverage.
Then the reality will be triple or quadruple that cost.
“The One Word Missing From All Those ObamaCare Ads”:
A recent IBD front page article/editorial was based on the one word that the Obozocare Nazis never mention.
That word is Mandate, where every American is forced or mandated into accepting and paying for ObozoCare.
The main target of the Mandate are the young health Americans not in need of this costly witches brew.
If they are not mandated/forced to join, Obozocare will die on its own.
This link will take everyone to read about the missing word, Mandate, in every pro Obozocare ad and propaganda coming out of the outhouse and congress:
I regret I’m late to this thread, hopefully someone can answer this for me: what is the “penalty” (tax) again if one does not get health insurance?
I heard somewhere it’s $300, but is that $300 for the whole year or per month? (i.e. ~$1200)?
Thanks for posting. This helps answer my previous question.
Open enrollment period? So Obamacare covers preexisting conditions -- except people need to wait so they can be paid for???
Some people will believe anything. Oh, and your dog gets shot on the second anniversary non-payment followed by your wife on the third.
For all you democrat and liberal lurkers out there.
Not one Republican Senator or Representative voted for Obamacare.
And, it is a Democrat president implementing this monstrosity.
IT'S All THE DEMOCRATS FAULT!
It is not George Bush, John Boehner or any republican.
The price of healthcare including deductibles is only going to get worse.
