128 new waivers granted for ObamaCARE
The Obama regime has given out another 128 waivers for ObamaCARE. This brings the grand total to 1,168 waivers given out for something that we had to had to see what’s in it. Also the entire state of Maine was granted a waiver, so techically the total is now over a million. In fact, the total of people covered by ObamaCARE waivers is now closer to three million total as these 128 waivers increased the total by about 300,000. Obama’s HHS is plotting more waivers for 2012-2013. From the Hill (at the bottom of the story of course):
HHS must still bridge the gap until 2014, when the mini-med plans will supposedly be phased out because consumers will be able to shop for affordable and quality coverage on new state-run insurance exchanges. HHS said it is now examining waivers options for 2012 and 2013.
The new numbers were posted on an HHS website Friday night without an announcement from the department. The 128 waivers added in March track closely to the 126 HHS awarded in February.
