(4,644 posts)You have been rude and mean to everyone that has tried to help, look in a mirror. Maybe you should be the one ashamed of yourself.
Your subsidy is based off what the 2nd lowest silver plan costs. If the 2nd lowest silver plan also went up you will receive more subsidy which would lower that "expected" $101.67 humana is charging. Your bill clearly states they are using your 2014 APTC amount and that will change for 2015.

One other thing, prices are based off age and age alone, you are now a year older so you could see some increase, granted not a 4x increase
Here in Ohio the ACA plan we have went up one third of one percent after subsidy. From $300 to $301. Before subsidy it went up 5%, but all plans went up around 5% so the subsidy was increased and the overall cost only went up 1 dollar a month
Instead of being rude to everyone and shooting down everyone's ideas like WilliamPitt did for the longest time when it came to the ACA. Find yourself a different plan (if your APTC does not increase) that you can afford come the 15th. You might have to change doctors I do not know, here most of the different plans from different companies cover the same hospitals and doctors. It could be that way for you too, but if you do have to change doctors, that is a better option than to have NO doctor. You will not know all the FACTS until the 15th and you start studying out which plan is best for you in 2015 just like I assume you did for 2014
