There was never a guarantee that you were going to keep your plan anyway, was there? Insurance companies are changing plans from year to year.

The plan was cancelled because of ACA requirements. I had had it for several years prior. Yes, plans change, but this was different.

Which requirements made them cancel it? Was it a high deductible scam plan?

It was a high deductible insurance plan, not a monthly subscription to all your healthcare needs. Why would you call that a “scam”?

And for the record, it was not as high a deductible as most “silver” plans on the exchange currently.

Why do you believe that the ACA would have wanted such plans cancelled? There's a very straightforward public health reason that's reminiscent of why states require drivers to have car insurance.

The plan would have been in effective over 18 years ago. Does your internet plan look the same now as it did 18 years ago? Your cell phone plan?

It’s reminiscent of the screeching about how single payer healthcare would have death panels deciding who lived or died like that’s not a word for word description of insurance company actuaries or financial employees making the same decisions.
