You're not gonna believe this...

In what can only be described as a bizarre turn of events, I may have been premature in awarding this week's winner of the "D'uh! Award" in my recent post on Exchanges. This morning's email brings us this breaking news:

"Willis Survey: [ObamneyCare©] Driving Up Health Plan Costs for Employers"

Seriously? This is news?

Well, according to The Health Care Reform Survey 2012, provided to us by the folks at Willis (a self-described "leading global insurance broker") and available in pdf form here, it is. More and more employers are un-grandfathering their plans in an effort to stay ahead of rising premiums (rotsa ruck with that, by the way). And these costs are being passed on, of course, to their employees.

D'uh!
