So do you plan on cashing that rebate check or returning it to your insurance company?

They are still crowing about rebate checks that hardly anyone will see.

4. Only 31% of those who buy their own insurance-3.4 million people.
"The Kaiser analysis, based on preliminary data from the insurance companies themselves, estimates total rebates to be around $1.3 billion. A separate survey by Goldman Sachs, reported by Bloomberg News, pegged the total at $1.2 billion.
According to Kaiser, 3.4 million people in the individual market are expected to get a rebate check, which will average $127 each. That's about 31 percent of all people who purchase their own policies. "
Most of the t-baqggers probably have it bought for them thru work, or most likely are on Medicare.

I got a rebate check that was about half of my new pricier premiums.
Thanks a lot 0bama and the DUches can suck a turd out of my balloon knot.

See, doofus, when you work, and your company offers health insurance, you're actually having a set amount deducted from your paycheck to pay for it. So, basically you're paying for it, it's just at a better rate because a lot of people have the same insurance. But living your parents basement wearing your My Little Pony shirt and holey skivvies, you wouldn't know anything aout that.

You mean that 300% decrease or whatever else the hell Barry promised us to get this shit bill passed? I won't be waiting by the mailbox, you stupid old shrew.
She expects to get a rebate check from her insurance company? I'd ask if she was really that stupid but I already know the answer. :rofl:

REBATE CHECK????
I'm still waiting for my skittle-shitting unicorn Barry promised in 2008. :lmao:

They were sacrificed by the Dems in the run-up to the 2010 elections, as an offering to Marx & Engels. :fuelfire: :tongue:

I honestly think these half wit misfits believe there is going to be a huge slush fund of pooled monies that is to be sent out randomly.
As always they are looking for a windfall but will see nothing.
-
These are rebates to individuals, so they are most likely small business owners (very small business). How many of the misfits at DU qualify for that?
$127? Yeah that is so worth flushing the economy over.
-
$127? I'm not impressed. Bush gave me $600.
-
Let's see, you get a rebate for $100 but your annual premiums go up $1000. Yeah, I can see where the pimitives would think that's a good deal.

Nobody responded to the issue of only individual purchasers getting rebates, and only for a pittance.

1. Well done... I have a question...
One Repub talking point about 'Obamacare'..is that Health Care should be available 'across State lines'..
It sounds sensible.. And few seem to refute that talking point..
But isn't the reality that Health Care providers would game the system like Credit Card companies do..that credit card companies establish themselves in the few States that allow huge interest rates? And establish offices there so they can charge the exorbitant rates?
Don't sign up for a 25% credit card, you idiot.

And the Dems bitched that it was paltry.

Whatta ya gonna buy? A pair of earrings?
-
If KCMISD pays full cost of insurance, they should get the refund. If they pay a percentage of the premium, the refund should be proportional. I don't think the shrew will see a big check.

They can send it to 0bama for his reelection campaign. :-)

And Dolph Lundgren was the one who did the sacrificing of said unicorns....did take him a try or two to get it right though.....

You're dreaming DUmmie if you honestly think there is going to be a rebate check...your Messiah has just gotten he green light to implement the largest tax hike on the entire nation in the history of the world.
What rebate check do you honestly think you're gonna get?

Any rebate check they may get will be minimal compared to the increase in taxes they see.
-
And what anyone does get will be taxed as well.

It's all they can get. Heck these are the people that take out payday loans from the Indian reservations at 120%.

Good God Almighty. Your company will get that rebate check, but ONLY if all of the pooled accounts in your insurer's book of business hit below the MLR. Then, that amount is rebated to all of the companies in that pool. THEN, the company will disburse that to employees, at the same percentage they pay in. So you are looking at getting maybe a buck. Maybe.

I'd pay to see some of the prominent primitives set up a webcam, sit down around a table, and play Monopoly. :lmao:
