Obamacare Waivers Climb to Nearly 1,400

As the number of days since the passage of the health care overhaul increases, so too do the number of waivers exempting employers from it. And now, according to CNS News, that number has climbed to nearly 1,400.

CNS based its article on a new report by the Government Accountability Office (GAO). According to it, the exact number of waivers granted stands at 1,372. Those are for what are called “mini-med” programs. CNS explains:

The waivers are for so-called mini-med plans that offer annual coverage limits. They were outlawed by ObamaCare and are scheduled to be regulated out of existence in 2014.

However, such plans are often the only form of health insurance available to workers and without the waivers most would no longer be available.

[...]

Because these new regulations would end up denying health insurance to millions of Americans, HHS began issuing waivers so that people could keep their health coverage despite the new mandates.

The report found, however, that some of those annual limits were as high as $2 million, and that the only real basis for granting the waivers was the claim that the health care law would regulate the plans out of existence. It may come as now surprise, then, that only 65 waiver applications were denied through April 2011. 95 percent of applications were approved, the report says.

As CNS points out, the administration set up an entirely new government office to deal with the waivers:

HHS in fact established a new government office to process and evaluate the tide of waiver applications submitted by companies and unions trying to keep their health plans from being eliminated by ObamaCare.

“To implement various provisions of PPACA, including those related to annual limits, HHS created what is now called the Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight (CCIIO).”

“CCIIO granted waivers on the basis of applications’ projected significant increases in premiums or significant decreases in access to health care benefits,” the report said. “Officials told us that they could not exclusively rely on specific numerical criteria to define a significant increase in premiums or a significant decrease in access to benefits.”

You can read the full CNS News article here and the GAO report here.

    There are at least 1372 reasons that proves Obamacare is at best misguided. Without these waivers to follow the plan millions of workers would lose their healthcare. Some healthcare plan, huh folks? Well thought out. Leaves you wonder if anyone actually has gotten healthcare due to Obamacare?

Looks like the only ones going to be paying for this pile of crap are the ones that that were responsible enough to have health insurance in the first place. We will be paying for second and third class health care and the ones not paying will get first class. To hell with that plan. If you like it you pay for it. I dont care if ilegals have healthcare or not to be honest. They are helping to tear this country apart. Let them go back across the border and get their own house in order, it will then be easier for us to do the same. Millions of us are going to be without insurance at all, turning the tables, those who wouldnt buy insurance will have it for nothing and those that did buy insurance willhave to pay or have none at all. Go home and lock the door behind you AK. Why come here and smear your BS. Your comments always upset me. On another note, will New York still get their exemption since weener is gone? Lotus.

      The military is devoted to preventing disease, illness, and injury not only because it they take troops off the field, but they also cost the system money.
      The U.S. Army Public Health Command and similar organizations in the other services are devoted exclusively to this mission.

      If you contrast a system that has an interest in seeing that you to stay healthy because it saves them (the government) money with a system that makes money when you are sick, (insurance companies, HMOs) one can see that a pinch of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
      A similar government system implemented nationwide would save people money, improve their health, and save lives.
      If universal government-run healthcare is good enough for the troops, it’s good enough for us all.

      Forgetting for the moment that obamacare in it’s entirety is un-Constitutional, the fact that it has ANY waivers defies the Equal Protection clause.

      At what point do we just say, the whole country gets a waiver. These waivers to friends are a racket, Obama should be charged with racketeering! This is corruption of the highest level.

      Impeachbo….Looks like the beast is trying to repeal itself. Now is the time for the conservatives to strike and strike hard. The whole healthcare bill is a farce and a sham to destroy th U.S.A. and the anyone willing to stand up for America. All involved in pushing this thing through are traitors, but thats already known. Nancy p. is the queen of this monster. Lotus.

      Here, Here, well said, impeachbho! Might I add, the occupier in the WH is making jokes about ‘shovel ready jobs’. Suing our own states for upholding the rule of law? and so many other ‘regulations’, that actually stifle the free market. Spending us into lala land, this debt is gonna crush us all!!!

      Where is the accountability, the values, the morals, the honesty in DC, I ask?

      While Rome burns, the Emperor fiddles! hurah!

      AKMIIKEUS, don’t be a fool. This isn’t about insuring the uninsured. If it was they could have simply expanded what we already have for indigent medical care, Medicare, Medicaid and CHIPS. By the way, we already spend more on those that defense/wars. Think how much it will cost with single-payer. Don’t be fooled; single-payer is the ultimate goal. Obama said it himself several times before saying it wasn’t. Wake up and smell the socialism and communism.

      Socialism and communism are for the feeble-minded, inept and lazy. Which are you?
