I guess it will work like Medicare where you pay the same price each month. So everyone pays 113 dollars a month instead of various amounts. It will save some people money but will increase others. I just wonder about a family with four kids for example. Will that be 113 per person? I think it is a wait and see at this point. Again states rights should always win out. The problem with Obamacare is that it is federal. Each state should decide how they want to do their healthcare.
The idea behind this law is that there is zero direct cost. So there will be no monthly premium or bill at the doctors. The entire bill will be on the taxpayer and there will be no financial restraint on the patient. People will treat the doctor’s office like an open bar at a wedding.

Not everyone on Medicare Part B pays the same premium each month. Higher premiums are paid by those whose income is higher. The premiums don’t vary by “risk” but simply by income.
As the DimocRATS would say...”well, it’s only fair!”.
