Taxpayers paid more than $114 billion directly to insurers in 2024 … more than six times as much as in 2014.
Our study shows the correlation between premium growth and subsidy growth is nearly perfect.
In 2024, 90% of subsidy-eligible enrollees had access to plans with net premiums of $10 a month or less.
We found that the market size for unsubsidized Obamacare plans shrank by a quarter, from $23 billion in 2014 to $17 billion in 2024.
Obamacare is a poor value, a product few Americans would voluntarily purchase without subsidies.
