8 of 11 Obamacare Co-ops Are Failing

The chief operating officer for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services told a House committee last week that 8 of the 11 remaining Obamacare co-ops in the nation are "being monitored closely" for "corrective action plans," the Washington Free Beacon reports.

Dr. Mandy Cohen told the House Oversight and Government Reform committee that such "enhanced oversight" occurs when a co-op develops issues with finances, operations, compliance or management processes.

"CMS was aware of this, that almost all of the co-ops incurred losses in 2014," Rep. Buddy Carter, Georgia Republican, said to Cohen at the hearing, the Free Beacon reports.

"If you were aware of that and some were already shutting down why did you continue to award the taxpayer dollars in loans?"

The house of cards is coming down. Most knew this would not work . The only thing this did was make insurance companies grow and people who were not working got insurance. Everyone else has lost by increased premiums and reduced coverage.
