Let us know when you find out some facts on that.
Oh - be sure to include stories from the people who have gotten refunds on their insurance premiums in the past two months, due to overpayment limited by the ACA. Because rerouting your health insurance premium dollars away from your health care is a good thing in your view?

Refunds for Excessive Health Insurance Premiums
Beginning in 2011, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) required insurers to report to the federal government the percentage of a health insurance premium spent on administrative, quality improvement, and medical costs.
Starting in 2012, if an insurer directs less than 80 percent of an individual insurance or small group plan’s premium and 85 percent of a large group plan’s premium to clinical and quality care improvement costs, the insurer will be required to refund the difference to the enrollee. This provision intends to ensure efficient and proper use of enrollees’ premiums.
