Somebody last week had his dog Baxter signed up.....maybe they can re-label the baby as the family pet ...and try again.

That Obamacare family plan is substandard.

Republicans and insurance companies blamed.

Terrible reporting. Why wouldn’t they investigate the reason?

Because they are reporters, not investigators, duh!

“When Kelly called a representative, he was told his daughter had to be 2 before she could be covered under a family plan. He would have to buy a separate plan for her....”

Yep, “just another glitch.”

...why is the baby is not covered?

Not a minority? Dad complained to the press and IRS is now hounding him? Didn't vote right in the last election? Hasn't greased his congresscritters palms sufficiently? Didn't provide enough cocaine or meth to his assigned "navigator"? Said a bad word about The One on FR?

The possible reasons are endless.

JUST OPT OUT.

Roll the dice.

You: “Yes, I’d like the Obamacare Family Plan, please”.

OC Rep: “Would you like that with our without children?

Moslem babies are covered,
as are the families of Congress, pOTUS, and SCOTUS.
and their Staff, and their babies.

The rest had better be ready for the misery,
and pain, and death that is coming.

I’m sure the wife can take care of any needs this child has and there’s also professional courtesy from other physicians. This still makes no sense.

I think the Dad is covered in case he ever becomes pregnant.

The only purpose of Obamacare is to siphon money from anybody with savings until we are all wards of the state.

Exactly. .....The new higher premiums include higher co-pays and higher deductions, and most people will never exceed the higher deductions (barring serious illness or an accident).

Open a separate bank account (or get a large Mayonnaise jar to keep in a hidey-hole in the back yard) and put a portion of your income into it each month for medical expenses. Why separate? So the money is set aside for a specific purpose and it reduces the temptation to spend the money on something else.

Cheaper than the OCare and you can pay cash for routine services throughout the year. ....The new deductibles are ridiculously high on purpose; most people will never exceed them, so the insurance doesn’t have to pay anything but a small portion of co-pay.
