ObamaCare Is Live

[YankyDoodle]

I don't have time to call or apply for info, a family with gross income $85,000 and 3-4 children how much will it cost to get the new Obama Care and does Obama Care cover out-of-network.

Oh me me me, pick me!!!! We all have tons of time to check it up for you 

Obamacare is not an insurance plan, it just mandates certain services and rules. Insurance companies generally will only pay for medical expenses provided by hospitals and doctors that they "cover".

They claim it's affordable healthcare, how does it get affordable?

Does anyone know if the web site automatically checks and verifies your income through previous tax return info?

You don't need to upload your tax return?

Supposedly you need to enter the amount from prior year tax return. The system checks to see if it matched the return that the IRS has on file. If it does that income amount is accepted as true but if it doesn't match you need to send in proof (i guess paystubs) of current income.

So if I understand correctly, if you provide pay stubs, you prove that the return they have on file is wrong? Weird.
Also what if someone made lots of money but currently is making borcht, why should he be penalized for last year's income?

Not sure if this is the correct thread, but what do people think if one has a plan that is conditioned on being outside of the USA most of the year, what happens if the dependent does reside in the US?

[MarkS]

To clarify.
If you are still making the same that you made last year, and you enter that amount, and it matches last years tax return.
If you enter an amount different than last years (either more or less) you need to prove it with current pay stubs.

Obviously what is important is what you are making now, and if that's different than what you made last year they use current #'s - but you have to prove it.

Non-sequitur?

For ppl who have struggled to traditionally get health insurance it is supposed to be relatively affordable.

When i entered last years income the website told me that "this information does not seem to match records we have" and asked me to pick a reason for that (like new job, making more money etc.)

So then i put in what iv'e earned this year so far, but same message popped up. only when i put in the amount that i will be making for the whole 2013 (estimate) it went through

People are complaining about a $25 plan with a $1500 deductible. Unbelievable.
