Obamacare Survival Guide ??

Interesting, so if I did the calculation correctly, I would have to pay at least $400.00 monthly for coverage that I now pay $120.00 monthly for. Ouch.

ETA: Adding a quote from this page:

"In general, employees who are offered insurance through work are not eligible for subsidized exchange coverage, so long as their insurance meets specified requirements. You would only be eligible for subsidized exchange coverage if your income is between 1 and 4 times the federal poverty level and you would have to pay more than 9.5% of your household income for your own coverage through the insurance offered by your employer. "

TeddyBear, you may find you qualify for a policy that is cheaper than the one at your work.
