American Family Ending Health

Insurance

Earlier this week, David Brinkman

received a surprise in the mail box.

It was a letter, and inside, it said American Family Insurance was canceling

his medical policy, effective April 2014.

"We were kind of dumbfounded, for lack of a better term," Brinkman

said. "We didn't know what we were going to

do."

Brinkman is a farmer living in Greene, Iowa, and has had four bypasses and

several stents put in for his heart. For a man with his

health problems, losing his insurance is a huge

problem.

"If your insurance gets canceled, that's a big chunk of your life," he

said.

Brinkman isn't alone in his problem, either –

American Family confirmed that they're actually canceling all their major medical insurance policies.

Brinkman said he

thought it was because

of the Affordable Care Act,

also known colloquially as Obamacare. But, that's

not the case, said American Family.

"It had nothing to do with that legislation," American Family

Spokesman Steve Witmer said."The wheels were in motion for this in 2009

and prior.“ Yeah Sure!

Witmer told me that the company decided back in

2009 that they simply couldn't afford to provide

competitive health insurance anymore.

Current health customers have been grandfathered along in the grace period

since then.

American Family is recommending that its

soon-to-be-former customers transfer to

Assurant Health, where the companies have brokered a deal for

guaranteed coverage.www.AIADirectQuote.com

Still, Brinkman said it is a tough transition – he'll be paying more, and for

less coverage at that. Total, he estimated that

the change will add about $5000 to his yearly

insurance costs.

"That's a heck of difference in your life,

especially when you get to be my age and are

thinking about retirement," he said.

Now, he has 60 days to make the decision of

whether to transfer to Assurant, or look for coverage elsewhere, because the clock is

ticking on his American Family policy.
