Why you can't blame Obamacare for the crisis in 'underinsurance'
Why you can't blame Obamacare for the crisis in 'underinsurance'-latimes: Thanks to a couple of timely surveys of medical consumers, the focus of the healthcare debate has shifted abruptly from helping the uninsured to how to help the "underinsured." These are the people who have insurance but still face co-pays and deductibles that could break them financially if they had a major medical need. It shouldn't surprise anyone that anti-Obamacare conservatives have
seized on the trend, declaring it another flaw in the Affordable Care
Act and blaming the act for making it worse. They're wrong, and their
own figures prove it.
