Health insurance companies will be making out better than oil companies have in recent years from this. That and of course hospitals and healthcare professionals who will likely get an influx of patients since paying for health insurance and not going periodically at least for checkups would be a waste.

I've not had health insurance for the past 4 years. I haven't needed it - I'd have thrown away $5,000+ that I probably have made $20k+ with otherwise.

Just seems like a waste - the money is going towards ridiculously inflated healthcare costs and of course advertising costs for the health insurance companies. Considering car insurance companies are some of the biggest ad spenders thanks to some of the states mandating car insurance, wouldn't be surprised to see health insurance join them up there.
