Semantics. We are required to purchase a government mandated product(or have proof of similar product) and use said product at facilities where costs are not regulated. But congrats on playing the game in a way that allows you to skirt around any issue.
No one is required to buy insurance through an exchange.
If you do buy (or have) insurance, you are free to not use it at facilities where costs are not regulated.
Can you give us the the address of a U.S. hospital where costs are regulated?
Nothing in the ACA requires you to use your insurance, go to a doctor, go to a hospital.
Oh, wait...do you mean you might get sick or injured and need to seek medical care? I guess you
will have to go to the hospital where costs aren't regulated if that happens. Good thing the ACA was passed so that you can...wait, you're saying you had health insurance before and would have gone anyway...well, then what does this have to do with the ACA?
Oh, I see.
Nothing.
