In fact, the report didn’t attempt to estimate what the change might be in premiums.
"While the CBO said that the average premium per person in the individual market would go up by 10 percent to 13 percent because of the health care law, it added that for most, subsidies would push their costs “well below” what they would have been charged in the absence of the law. In its latest report, the CBO says about 80 percent of an estimated 25 million joining the exchanges by 2023 will receive subsidies. In addition, for those seeing an increase in cost, they would also see an increase in coverage. Their current cheaper policy with high deductibles and co-pays and upper limits for yearly payouts would be replaced with better standardized plans."
