President Obama's health care law will push 7 million people out of their job-based insurance coverage — nearly twice the previous estimate, according to the latest estimates from the Congressional Budget Office released Tuesday.
CBO said that this year's tax cuts have changed the incentives for businesses and made it less attractive to pay for insurance, meaning fewer will decide to do so. Instead, they'll choose to pay a penalty to the government, totaling $13 billion in higher fees over the next decade.
These numbers represent employees who move off of employer based health insurance and into the exchange or private insurance by 2022, since employees get credits to use the exchanges this doesn't represent a lack of health coverage, just employee based health coverage. These employers risk a higher turnover and lower moral due among other caveats such as additional costs to them for the penalties. It remains to be seen how this affects cost and the number of uninsured in general.
Penalty for employee who doesn't use the exchange is $2,000 while the penalty for those who do is $3,000. Keep in mind Employers only have to pay 50% of their employees health insurance costs.
