“At the rate we’re signing up people right now, we’re not going to be able to pay for lunch next year! I’ve got clients that are just super upset that they have to basically divulge almost everything in their entire life before they can get to the shop.”-Tom Shores, Your Health Idaho exchange board member
The Associated Press (AP) has revealed that Obama Care is mandating that the government of Idaho sign up a minimum of 40-thousand people by the 2014 deadlines. AP says that’s mathematically impossible, even if 5-thousand Gem Staters sign up every month!
At this point only 100 Idahoans (supposedly) have made it through the joke of a sign up process to get Obama Care insurance! Back on 08 October, Boise newspaper, The Spokesman Review, declared Your Health Idaho a success:“Delays continue to frustrate users of Idaho’s new health insurance exchange, but the program is accomplishing goals….”
Here’s a major problem; even though Idaho runs their own insurance exchange, people being forced to get insurance they can’t afford must still go through the failed federal healthcare.gov data hub to register!
But wait, there’s more! Major health insurer, Blue Cross of Idaho, claims the corrupt board members of Your Health Idaho have blocked Blue Cross, and other insurance companies, from taking part in any discussions to fix the exchange problems: “It would seem to me, if we’re going to move forward here, we’re going to have to stop being in silos and start collaborating.”-Zelda Geyer-Sylvia, Blue Cross of Idaho, and also a member of the corrupt Your Health Idaho board
Blue Cross is one of at least four insurance companies that are bucking the Obama Care trend by publishing their new rates on their own websites, so Idahoans don’t have to sign up through Obama Care to see what they might have to pay. By the way people, anybody could have done the same thing prior to Obama Care, you know, shop around for cheap insurance (it’s just that there isn’t any for those whose incomes are too high, even with Obama Care)!
In Boise, the Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center is trying to help out by offering free Obama Care sign up help. They warned the process could take up to two hours.
