To the shock of consumers who believed President Obama’s promise that they could keep their health-insurance plans if they liked them, hundreds of thousands of cancellation notices have been issued since August, according to Kaiser Health News, a service of the health insurance giant Kaiser Permanente.
The letters are going to people who buy their own coverage, which has frustrated many who want to keep what they have and has forced others to buy more costly policies.
The insurers explain that the policies are not in alignment with requirements of Obama’s Affordable Care Act that take effect Jan. 1
Most of the insurers are ending policies sold after the law passed in March 2010.
