ACA/Obamacare is government insurance that is coordinated with the IRS, expect high deductibles and co-pays and limited to a select list of doctors you can visit only in your state. The IRS will expect you to report your income to them or you could face penalties come tax season. Rates are higher because so many high claims on these plans, the healthy people pay for the unhealthy people.
Employer plans typically pay a high percentage of the monthly premiums for the employee themselves, but the minute you add a family member (spouse or kids or both) on to the plan, that premium is going to skyrocket. This is because employers usually give benefits towards their employees but the family will be paying full price to be added on to the plan.
