The Hill Names Top 5 Obamacare Controversies in 2013

2013 has been a year filled with many challenges for  implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The problems surrounding the health insurance exchange website Healthcare.gov, garnered the most attention, but other issues also caused trouble for the Obama Administration’s rollout of its healthcare law.
The Hill recently compiled a list of the top 5 biggest Obamacare controversies this year, and author Elise Viebeck hit the nail on the head.
1. Cancelled health plans
2. Healthcare.gov
3. Employer mandate delay
4. Government shutdown fight
5. Congressional subsidies

I agree with these five, and hope the list is shorter for 2015, at least for the sake of healthcare providers, who have already began to endure Obamacare cuts, despite delays in coverage provisions.
