I have a question? [View all]

Do the folks that live in all the states pay the same in the exchanges or do some pay more, where some Governors refused to take Medicaid money? Are all the prices uniform across the nation?

It seems to me that people making less than $50,000 per year gets a pretty good deal, with the subsidies and the total cost. Those that make $75K and above do not get that good a break on prices. I have heard that on TV also. Can anyone confirm that??
