I'm not sure that this is a fall out from Obamacare.  This sounds like 3M has decided to make a business decision to reduce costs at the expense of their retirees.  They probably figure they can cover it up by blaming it on Obamacare. 

I think that companies should not change the game on their retirees.  I want to say it should be Illegal, but of course, this is a moral and ethical issue, not a legal one.  And they are doing this to their retirees at an age when it will cost them more to get independent health insurance. 

Health care insurance is going up.  Recent article in B'ham paper indicated that BCBS of Alabama will be going up on average 8% this coming year.  My health insurance has been going up 8-12% every year.
