Listen closely. That’s the sound of a health-care plan dying. With the announcement this week of massive premium hikes for health insurance purchased through exchanges, it has become impossible to pretend that the Affordable Care Act is itself healthy. Figures released by the Department of Health and Human Services warn that premiums for the benchmark Silver plan in each state will rise by an average of 22 percent nationwide. In New York the average weighted increase for all plans will be less, but a still substantial 16.6 percent. Some popular plans will have higher increases. UnitedHealthcare, for example, will see a 28 percent increase.
