Many, many folks who have insurance are getting notified that they will be cancelled and they now have to go with ACA. So when Obama said "you'll get to keep your insurance if you want", he wasn't being truthful.
All that means is that they have changed insurance since 2010 when the law was signed. All plans in place then were grandfathered in. However, if you changed plans (which often happens with people who have individual policies and take a job/leave a job get an individual policy) since 2010 and the policy is not ACA compliant then that insurance company can bring that policy into compliance or cancel it. So what you are seeing are companies who choose not to bring the policies into compliance since most have policies offered on the exchanges that are in compliance. The grandfather clause was discussed in September of 2010 by Senator Mike Enzi on a lot of news channels.
