Obamacare Provider Fees were posted in the federal register today. These ‘Obamacare Provider Fees’ are the health insurance plan taxes via Obamacare. The fees total $10 billion+ per year. The full proposal can be found here:

These ‘fees’ will be passed on to consumers and will increase an average HC plan by $300/year starting next year.

The proposed rule in the federal register has a 90 day comment period which starts the day the rule is posted (today). I think its worth taking a look at, and now is the time to make our voices heard.
