Thousands get health insurance cancellation notices
Health plans are sending hundreds of thousands of
cancellation letters to people who buy their own coverage, frustrating
some consumers who want to keep what they have and forcing others to buy
more costly policies.
The main reason insurers offer is that
the policies fall short of what the Affordable Care Act requires
starting Jan. 1. Most are ending policies sold after the law passed in
March 2010. At least a few are canceling plans sold to people with
pre-existing medical conditions.
