Health Insurance Premiums Skyrocket, Millions Face Higher Bills
Update: 2026-01-01
Description
Tax credits for Affordable Care Act enrollees expired, causing premiums to surge by 114% on average. This disproportionately affects those without employer coverage, Medicaid, or Medicare, like self-employed workers and small business owners. The political fallout is significant, with Democrats pushing for an extension and moderate Republicans urging a fix. The open enrollment window runs until January 15th, and a House vote on a three-year extension is possible, but Senate hurdles make passage uncertain. Families are hoping for quick relief or broader fixes to ease the financial burden. Checkout Solipillow.com
