Why the ACA is the death knell of for-profit health insurance

[Geoff R. Casavant]

9. Ah, I see what you're saying now.

I think your post left out some of the intermediate steps in your reasoning -- your brain was moving too fast for your typing fingers.

The article indicates you are at least partially correct -- they are already trying to get some items like advertising classified as health care expenses. But so far HHS isn't going for it.

And yes, raising premiums will increase the actual dollar amount of profit for a while, but in a few years I believe the government plans will kick in too, and if the private plans are too expensive a lot of folks will jump ship.
