Earlier this month Upton Daily asked readers from Upton to weight in on how the Affordable Care Act was treating them. Here are the results from those who participated in the polling.
The majority of participants, 78 percent, believe everyone should have access to affordable health care. When asked if the government should have allowed Massachusetts opt out of the affordable care act 63% of participants agreed.
More than half of the participants, 59% , believed the government lied when they said you can keep your doctor and your current health insurance.
According to the polling 7 of those who participated in the poll said they were able to access the Affordable Health Care Act online and one person was able to find and purchase an affordable plan. Most participants voted to delay the roll out of the Affordable Health Care Act until the website was fixed – 69%.
A little less than a third of the participants had their current health plan cancelled or changed to a higher costing plan as a result of the Affordable Health Care Act, 27%. The majority of those polled were not affected in any way by the Affordable Health Care Act.
