8,000 Washington State Obamacare applicants about to get a nasty surprise - See more at: conservativeintel.com


Another issue of questionable data was disclosed Friday afternoon by Washington State, which revealed that 8,000 enrollees and applicants on its state-run Obamacare marketplace were told they were eligible for higher tax credits to offset the cost of their insurance than they actually qualified for. Washington said that in some cases its exchanges was transmitting those applicants’ monthly incomes to the federal data hub — which verifies subsidy eligibility — as opposed to annual incomes, which resulted in the erroneously high subsidy calculations. The problem has since been fixed, and Washington is in the process of notifying all of the affected people to give them the correct tax credit amounts.

According to the state government, this doesn’t affect people who were enrolled in Medicaid.

So in short, a lot of people mistakenly thought they were getting free health care because of a computer error, when in fact they are probably going to have to pay the full Obamacare price, or at least a good chunk of it.
