Obamacare architect: High-deductible plans overdone

“One of the chief architects of the president’s health law said Friday the plans offered on government-run exchanges need to be more affordable in order to boost participation rates. High-deductible plans are part of the problem, Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel added. ‘We’ve overplayed the high-deductible plans. People are feeling this is less and less insurance. And just more and more, ‘I’m paying out of my pocket.” According to the government, the penalties for not getting health insurance are going up substantially in 2016.  The penalty is calculated as a percentage of taxable household income or per person, whichever is higher.”
