Feds propose new tax on health insurers

[Revmitchell]

Health insurance companies will have to pay to play in new health insurance markets coming under President Barack Obama's health care law.

The federal Health and Human Services department said Friday it is proposing a "user fee" amounting to 3.5 percent of premiums for health insurers who want to offer policies in the new federal exchanges coming in 2014.

That's OK, they'll just pass the cost along to us! :thumbsup:

I don't know where the buck stops anymore, but I know where the bill goes!

We had to pass the bill in order to know what was in the bill.

As I understand it the bill is still open so new things can be attached to it as well. I am sure noone other than the poor aide that is writing them is reading those either.
