Just reached my 60 days at my job. So I was able to sign up for healthcare with them. I will be paying roughly $170 a month, but my employer is picking up the extras like dental and vision, even life insurance and extreme disability ( from just a accident that might keep me off my feet for a couple of weeks to terminal illness) . And I did pick the most expensive plan due to all it covers. From what I have been through, I rather be safe than sorry. And looking back, this plan would have cost way more before ACA. There are things in there that businesses can use to get better prices for their bulk rates for their employees.
Remember! Deadline is Feb 15 to avoid the fee for 2015.
Many would/will argue with me but...

(35,340 posts)about 100 returns so far and 7 had issues with the ACA. He said he had several that had to pay a fine of $200 up to almost $2000.
He said he also had one client that had to pay the government back several thousand from the subsidy he received. He said most of these clients could have previously done a simple return but now the ACA has made the tax returns so complicated they have to pay a out a big chunk of the refund they would have previously received just because of the forms. I have also talked to a person that does tax preparation for the AARP and she said the same thing. Basically it punishes the people that can't afford to be paying for all the red tape involved. The more I hear about the mess this thing has made the more I think it should repealed.
