💸 The Hidden Cost of “Success” — Health Insurance in 2026

I spent time digging through Healthcare.gov plan data and 2026 rate projections, and the numbers are hard to ignore.

If you’re a business owner or self-employed professional making more than minimum wage — and not eligible for tax credits — health insurance has become absurdly expensive.
Here’s the reality for name-brand coverage like Blue Cross Blue Shield or UnitedHealthcare in 2026:
▪ $1,400+ per person, per month
 ▪ That’s $16,800+ per year in premiums before deductibles
 ▪ Family coverage routinely exceeds $25,000–$30,000 annually
 ▪ Many plans still carry $7,000–$9,000 deductibles per person

And this is not fringe coverage — this is standard, compliant Marketplace insurance with real provider networks.

Why this hits business owners the hardest:
• Premiums on the ACA Marketplace are seeing 18–26% increases
 • Enhanced subsidies have expired, pushing many self-employed people to full-price plans
 • Earn “too much” for tax credits? You pay 100% of the cost
 • Small businesses absorb the same increases — with zero purchasing power

In plain terms:
 📉 Health insurance is now rivaling mortgage or rent payments
 📉 It reduces hiring capacity, growth, and reinvestment
 📉 It effectively penalizes people for earning more than minimum wage
This isn’t politics.
 This isn’t whining.
 This is basic math.

Healthcare should be about care — not financial punishment for entrepreneurs and small businesses trying to do things the right way.
