Скачать или смотреть ACA Affordability 2026: Why Prices Are So High (And What You Can Do) | Benefits Oasis | Ian Sanders

Have you opened your ACA renewal for 2026 and felt shocked by the price? You’re not alone. Many families are seeing premiums double — and in some cases even triple — and wondering how health insurance became so unaffordable so fast.

In this video, I break down what actually caused ACA prices to rise, why this didn’t happen overnight, and what changed behind the scenes with subsidies, mandates, and enrollment. More importantly, we walk through real options that still exist for people who feel stuck heading into 2026.

We cover:
– Why ACA premiums increased over time
– What changed after enhanced subsidies expired
– Who is being hit the hardest right now
– Off-exchange plans and when they may make sense
– Short-term medical coverage (and who should avoid it)
– Bronze plans paired with HSAs
– How income strategy mistakes can cost people thousands

This isn’t about panic or politics — it’s about understanding your options and making informed decisions for you and your family.

If you’re looking at your 2026 premiums and thinking, “There’s no way I can do this,” you’re not alone. Sometimes affordable healthcare is closer than it looks — it just takes clarity.

If you want to talk through your situation one-on-one, I’m happy to do that. There’s no cost and no pressure — just a clear look at what might work best for you.
