Health Insurers Owe Millions In Rebates To Floridians Thanks To Obamacare Regulations | Health insurance companies owe tens of millions to Florida policy holders after they failed to meet an Affordable Care Act provision that limits the amount of premium dollars that insurers can spend on overhead.

In January, the federal government denied the state’s request.
