THURSDAY, April 18, 2013 (Kaiser Health News) — Few aspects of the Affordable Care Act are more critical to its success than affordability, but in recent weeks experts have predicted costs for some health plans could soar next year.

Now health law supporters are pushing back, noting close ties between the actuaries making the forecasts and an insurance industry that has been complaining about taxes and other factors it says will lead to rate shock for consumers.

"Most actuaries in this country -- what percentage are employed by insurance companies?" Sen. Al Franken, a Minnesota Democrat, asked an actuary last week at a hearing of the Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions.

The committee was discussing a study published last month by the Society of Actuaries (SOA) predicting that, thanks to sicker patients joining the coverage pool, medical claims per member will rise 32 percent in the individual plans expected to dominate the ACA exchanges next year. In some states costs will rise as much as 80 percent, the report said

Considering how little people knew about him before electing him as the president of the united states...

what leads you to believe anyone cares what laws he shoves down our throat?

Yup, and when the ACA ultimately fails, single payer (Medicare for all) will be poised to take over.

I love all these negative articles about the ACA......all the apparent confusion in getting the ACA rolling tells me we are that much closer to implementing a single payer system.

Face it - citizens in the USA are not going to vote to return to their prior status as not only secondary and expendable citizens but also indentured servants of their employers. That is not going to happen.

I'll spare everyone yet another copy of the letter from the emergency physician.
