I know what is being reported by the insurance companies like AETNA that bitterly fought the plan from the beginning.

Color me skeptical.

I have received 4 timely letters from my insurance company and they confirmed exactly what was on the MarketPlace site.

There is a list of 300 doctors that take my insurance.

The insurance company I signed up with had the number 1 customer satisfaction in my area and client reviewers said they didn't face problems with billing. With no deductible and a 20% copay calculating my end shouldn't be a problem. I have always asked and received a comprehensive copay schedule with my insurances so I double check what the doctor's office bills.

No you have to be enrolled by March 31st. grantcart Oct 2013 #13

They announced yesterday they were changing the date for enrollment to March 31 to address the issue PoliticAverse Oct 2013 #14

There is no change, just misunderstanding the difference between applying and enrolling grantcart Oct 2013 #15

The reason for the March 31 deadline is the law provides for no penalty if you don't have PoliticAverse Oct 2013 #16
