From a fact sheet on Obama's website (PDF link):
Obama’s plan will save a typical family up to $2,500 on premiums by bringing the health care system into the 21st century: cutting waste, improving technology, expanding coverage to all Americans, and paying for some high-cost cases.
However, the CBO just produced this analysis of the senate health care bill (another PDF link) which concludes that the Senate health care bill will raise the average family's health care premiums by $2,300.
Even Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., is admitting that health care premiums aren't about to go down just because health care reform is passed:
“Anyone who would stand before you and say ‘well, if you pass health care reform next year’s health care premiums are going down,’
I don’t think is telling the truth.
I think it is likely they would go up.”
