Insanity of Covered California –Image: Soquel by the Creek @Twitter
(FOX News) While millions are watching their individual health insurance plans get canceled due to ObamaCare mandates, the new health care rules are also having a major impact on college campuses.
For decades, colleges and universities offered bare-boned health insurance plans but because of ObamaCare, those policies no longer cut it–colleges and universities are being forced to decide whether to offer significantly higher cost health insurance or cancel coverage all together.
At Bowie State University in Maryland, the cost of student health care plans went from roughly $100 annually to $1,800 annually thanks to Obama’s Affordable Unaffordable Care Act.
The sticker shock didn’t sit well with some students at Bowie State Univ who spoke to Campus Reform about ObamaCare price spikes:
- “We don’t have that money…We can barely afford to buy books.”
- Another said, “Its stupid and it’s Obama’s fault…You haven’t done anything Obama and I’m disappointed in you.”
- “What it was hyped up to be was that it was supposed to solve a lot of problems and help a lot of people and its not really doing that,” said another.
Its been a similar story across the country.
