I make that a 17% increase (if my math is correct) for those of us enrolled prior to 2011. Not horrendous considering it is the first increase in the 20+ years I have been enrolled. Much easier to take than the earlier plans that would have doubled or tripled the cost over three years. I agree that it does seem unfair to charge some more for the same coverage because of their income, but it follows all of the other "means based" fees/taxes that our representatives continue to vote for. I'm sure that we could have quite a heated discussion regarding all of this, but this is not the forum for it.
