Higher deductibles are being used to hide the increased costs…

I just realized this as well. If your renewal date is IN 2013 you’re dodging the large increases… at least until 2014. well, unless you work for a small business or are self employed, lol.

The hikes are pretty much the same across the board, who pays for the hikes is where things differ.

The Premium may have dropped, but they raised the deductible significantly. That is where we are paying more. I know that my deductible went to $1,500, but my rate dropped by almost $20 per check.

Mine actually isn’t too bad @ $1,500. It’s the $5-6k deductibles that are insane.

Makes you wonder how real those numbers are on both sides. Are NY loving ACA’s numbers really that good and are ACA hating Georgia’s numbers really that bad for example.
