The HHS recently stated that health insurance premiums will indeed be going up, contrary to the rhetoric of the last 4 years. What if the Fed doesn’t have enough money allocated to subsidize payments for all of the people, like me, that can’t afford it?

Also you may read about the “death panels” (IPAB) in Section 3403. The IPAB is specific to the Medicare reduction of services. A group of 15 on the Independent Payment Advisory Board. They will penalize hospitals and doctors if they treat beyond what is written, by HHS, or the IPAB.
