Repealing Obamacare without replacement would hike premiums 20% and leave 18 million uninsured, report says


In the first year, insurance premiums would jump by 20% to 25% for individual policies purchased directly or through the Obamacare marketplace, according to the report. Premium prices would continue to climb by 50% the next year, with the uninsured swelling to 27 million, as full repeal took effect, the report said. Even though the Republican-led Congress approved a process last week to begin repealing Obamacare, they have yet to propose a replacement.
