Blue Shield of CA only company to sell Child Only Policies

And, the rates are ugly.  Almost 400 a month for a Newborn.  Just under 200 a month for a toddler.

I'm looking for alternatives.  MiniMeds, SCHIPS, whatever I can lay my hands on...

Too bad they cut Medicare Advantage, instead of using that model to serve the needs of the under and un-insured.

No more insurance for the Little Ruggers

The insurance companies wrote the law KNOWING that they'd drop child only policies. 

Why?

Because SCHIPS, a Fed and State funded program for kids without insurance will write child only policies. 

Why?

Because they must.

Is anyone paying attention?  Obamacare was written by the insurance companies so that your health insurance can go the way of a small amphibian hocking lower prices on TV.

What to do?

If you have a child, and can't add them to an existing policy, then apply for your state's SCHIPS program.

This is only the beginning of the unforeseen consequences of regulation...
