A poll by the Kaiser Family Foundation found that 61 percent of people enrolled in marketplace plans are satisfied with their insurance choices, but 53 percent think the market is collapsing.
Eighty percent of people said they think drug prices are too high, and both Democrats and Republicans agreed the industry has too much sway over lawmakers.
Before the federal repeal of the mandate kicks in next year, some states are enacting measures to preserve its effects by creating their own versions of it.
A growing number of Americans are incorporating strategies for affording health insurance into financial planning, adapting money and salaries to yield better choices much as people place money into 401(k) plans to save for retirement while reducing their taxes.
The nations 1,400 community health centers are carefully watching expenses in case the financial rescue they hope Congress delivers this week doesnt arrive.
