“Yesterday the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released a report formerly/http://aspe.hhs.gov/health/reports/2013/acaannualreport/ratereview_rpt.pdf that claims to highlight how Obamacare is working for Americans—but in reality, it actually shows how the law has fallen short of candidate Obama’s promises. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then one chart in the report tells the tale. Figure 3 of the HHS report (below) highlights what happened when insurers requested to increase premiums by more than 10 percent—triggering a new rate review process established under Obamacare. While some of these premium increases were modified or withdrawn, nearly three in five (57.8 percent) were approved ‘unmodified’ by regulators.”
