"They were then expected to be able to shop relatively easily for their own insurance on Obamacare marketplaces. But with Trump administration revisions to the law and congressional bills injecting uncertainty into state insurance markets, that task of buying insurance for the first time this year is anything but simple."

What revisions? As far as I know nothing has changed yet. Thanks to Senator McCain. Grr.

This is part and parcel with creating a dependency state. 26 year olds look to stay on their parent’s insurance because they can’t find good jobs. They can’t find good jobs because the economy is an over-regulated, over-taxed mess. Clear away the taxes and regulation, let the economy boom and then 20-something year old kids will find jobs. They will find health insurance that they can afford (if we get rid of the regulation).

boo frickin’ hoo.

Obama told us tons of choices would be available because of the great economy he was creating and the wonderful Obamacare law he signed into our lives.

Now there is a CHALLENGE? Aw, my heart doesn’t break.

Maybe she and other 26 year olds should ask all those pontificating “professors” which one would be best for them since those “professors” seem to know so much about everything.

Re: Ridley then connected with a broker who signed her up for a silver plan that will cost her less than $4 per month, after receiving a premium subsidy of more than $500 a month.

This is why deductibles and premiums are so high.

Having been a benefits rep for a Tier 1 auto manuf. supplier to the Big 3, our UAW contract required that we keep dependents on the employee's coverage thru the age of 25 as long as they could prove dependency by providing a copy of their W2 showing the deduction.

Since my company was "self insured", that meant that all medical claims filed thru Blue Cross were ultimately passed on to the company with a surcharge assessed by Blue Cross.

That meant that every single male working in the plant who sired a child while unmarried, was entitled to add that child to his health insurance as a dependent.

I mention this only because my last memory of abuse was a 25 year old black male who came into HR to add his FIFTH child to his insurance while never once being married...................

Company sponsored health insurance should only be required to provide coverage for 4 years following the high school graduation of the employee’s dependent. That should cover the anticipated years of college of the dependent........

Boo freaking hoo. When I was 26 I was responsible for more drilling rigs than reasonable and had been taking care of myself and a family for a lot of years already.

Never asked anyone for anything or expected it either.

Only liberals could attempt to make the argument that 12 years old is old enough to get an abortion without parental notification, but 26 years old is too young to figure out health insurance for yourself.

she still did not know what plan was right for her.

My bet: she doesn't want any plan that she has to pay for herself.

They wouldn’t be facing such challenges if the Democrats didn’t wreck the Health insurance industry.

They’ve been adults legally for eight years now. Leftists want their voters to be children mentally forever.

The really sad part is that these people that are so poorly educated that they can’t even buy insurance when they’re 26, have been eligible to vote since they were 18. The rules ought to be that anyone who doesn’t buy their own insurance is ineligible to vote.
