Are the new massive deductibles and copay’s covered by federal subsidies or just the premiums?

Quite frankly I have better coverage coming from my work. With a lower deductible limit.

Hmmm. Her family doesn’t qualify for subsidies. How sad!

I don’t know the size of Cynthia Jaynes family, but for the sake of the argument, let’s say 4 people. By statute, the poverty line for a 4 person family is 23.500 dollars. Obamacare subsidizes health insurance costs for people with income under 4 times the poverty level — 94,000 dollars in this case — to cut insurance costs to just under 10%, which would be about 9000 dollars,

Now, a couple years ago, I got fired and hand no income at all and the best offer I had insurance was COBRA coverage at about 950 bucks per month, and I’m a single guy. Y’know what? I understand you’re in tears considering Ms Jaynes sad plight. But I’m not.
