Health insurance premiums aren’t “rising.” They’re doubling and tripling — in real time — while Congress shrugs.
$85 → $750/month
$900 → $2,500/month
Avg increase: +114%
This was warned about. Debated. Delayed.

I hope Congress acts asap to make this guidance ultimately unnecessary, but until then, offering some guidance and tips if you or a loved one’s care access is being impacted due to federal inaction.
