MENTOR, Ohio - TelAve -- ClaimLinx National Benefits Consultant Tom Quigley explains why health insurance premiums surged after enhanced ACA subsidies expired, during a new episode of The Neil Haley Show simulcast by the Cutting Edge Benefits Podcast.

Mentor, OH – October 31, 2025 – Media Giant Productions and ClaimLinx announce the release of a new episode of The Neil Haley Show featuring Tom Quigley, National Benefits Consultant for ClaimLinx. The episode, simulcast by the Cutting Edge Benefits Podcast, examines the immediate fallout following the expiration of enhanced Affordable Care Act (ACA) subsidies and the rapid rise in health insurance premiums across the United States.

In the episode, Quigley confirms what many Americans are now experiencing firsthand: enhanced ACA subsidies have officially sunset, and premiums increased almost immediately. Families, couples, and small business owners are being forced to choose between unaffordable coverage, dropping insurance altogether, or taking significant financial risks.

"If nothing is done, families could see premiums jump from $300 to $3,000 a month almost overnight," Quigley said. "That's not inflation. That's policy failure."

Quigley shares real-world examples from consumers and clients, including a couple whose monthly premium rose from approximately $200 to $2,800, effectively adding more than $24,000 per year in healthcare costs. He explains that these increases are not accidental, but the result of structural incentives and widespread misunderstanding of how health insurance works.

During the interview, Quigley discusses why many Americans are choosing to go uninsured, delay coverage until Medicare eligibility, or rely on Direct Primary Care (DPC) models combined with minimal coverage. While acknowledging the risks, he explains why these decisions are becoming increasingly common.

"That's not smart," Quigley said. "But it's understandable."

The episode contrasts the relative stability of traditional Medicare with ACA marketplace plans, which Quigley says have become financially unsustainable for middle-income Americans.
