To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing to request an exemption from the new health care coverage that will
go into effect on {date}. I would like to maintain my current plan, as the new one
will be detrimental to my family and cause extreme financial hardship.
The old coverage cost us {amount} per month for a(n) {amount} deductible and
a(n) {amount} copay. The new health care plan would require us to pay {amount}
per month for a(n) {amount} deductible, which will cost me {amount} more per
month for less coverage.
While I understand that in many cases, not having access to employer health
insurance will result in savings costs for employees, this is definitely not the case
for our family. While I earn approximately {income} annually in gross wages, my
{husband/wife} makes {amount} per year with no company insurance, which puts
our {number}-person family over the income cutoff to qualify for subsidies/tax
credits under the Affordable Care Act’s State Exchange. We would also be
receiving no vision or dental as well as a higher copay. It’s a big step down from
the generous, affordable policy we’ve enjoyed through {Company Name}. We got
quotes from a local insurance agent and they were just as difficult for our
financial situation.
It is vital that we retain our current coverage. Not only does our family have
ongoing health care needs, we have been counting on the {aspect} in order to
provide {care} for our children. I have attached a copy of our {year} tax return as
well as pay stubs and a copy of our recent health care costs. Thank you for your
consideration.
Sincerely,
{Sender Name}
