Author of the "Health Care Policy and Marketplace Review" blog, Bob Laszewski has reported a whopper of a story on his blog about a little known change to the requirements for determining whether or not an individual applying for health insurance through the exchanges will qualify for a subsidy. Information on income for individuals was supposed to come from the Federal Data Hub, but now that information can effectively be "ignored" if it conflicts with what the applicant is telling the navigator at the exchange! In other words, if I think I need/qualify for a subsidy, they'll just 'take my word for it'. . . .
I think everyone really needs to know & understand that the average, honest tax payer will end up paying for the "free money" that is sure to be given out once some people understand how to manipulate the system. No subsidy money should be given unless incomes & eligibility can be accurately verified.
