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

Health Insurers Set To Pay $1.3 Billion In Rebates

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.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

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:

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
