Before Obamacare a cancer patient was unable to coerce others to pay for his medical care and for the livelihood of numerous bureaucrats and enforcers.
So. Was she born here? An anchor baby from illegal parents. Nth generation? Not much here, frankly. Just bleeding heart whining.
If she has insurance she can keep her insurance. If she likes her doctor she can keep her doctor. Obama said so. Only thing is I will not be paying for it. Go. Trump!
This is not exactly correct.
No one can be denied life saving assistance. Those who can not afford care have always had various programs to fall back on to help them get the care they need.
What has changed is that those who CAN afford to pay for their own care no longer have to, and instead they can demand that others pay for their care instead (through insurance policies that they only get after they are sick and cant be denied or charged more for)
In this month’s issue of Pravda...
‘Families that Socialism has Helped’
Who cares if she got coverage? Coverage that doesn’t work but she got it.
The simple truth is that you can not give full health care to everyone. But you can give partial (bad) health care to every one.
It has to be rationed. always has been and always will be.
Obamacare was just another form of rationing used for political purposes.
“Healthcare”, not America, will be on her mind at the voting booth this fall.
I have mixed feelings about preexisting conditions coverage. If someone is born with some condition and then applies for insurance at 20 that is one thing. But someone who waits until they get sick at 60 and then wants to get insurance and game the system doesn’t seem fair to those who bought insurance for 40 years. Would it be fair for someone to not have auto insurance for years and years and then buy it after a crash and expect to be covered?
Certainly the issue can be dealt with reasonably without something like ObamaCare.
if she’s thinking in fear she’ll vote hillary.
If she actually listened to Donald she wouldn’t have fear - he said repeal and replace WITH SOMETHING BETTER.
I’d vote for the chance of some thing better.
AP spends most of their time tracking down statistical anomalies.
3 years later they are dusting off the Obamacare cliches and propaganda for another go-around.
I wonder why? what do they see coming?
Can I get “coverage” for my house after it burns down?
Of course an Hispanic woman was chosen for this article-——what a surprise.
Very sad story. Wanna hear mine? I have VA care, and just two weeks ago drove 3 hours to the VA Hospital, sat in the waiting room for another 3 hours, just to be finally told that the doctor I needed wasn’t there that day -— so I had to be rescheduled, and drove 3 hours back home. They rescheduled me for January 2017. Thankfully, I actually can wait.
Unless you want VA care in your future, feel sorry for our fellow citizens but understand the motive these stories -— to drive everyone to socialized health care. Run, folks, run!!!
Another example: You lose your coverage today because of loss of job and get hired next week and are offered new coverage with new carrier. They can't deny you the coverage because you were previously insured.
The bottom line is, your new insurance carrier can only deny you the treatments for the existing condition for a period of time contingent on how long you were without insurance prior to signing up with them. And that maximum period is one year............
If you lose your job, continue your coverage thru COBRA and get a new job with coverage 8 months down the road, the new carrier can't deny you because you were covered all those eight months.
If you lose your job and were without insurance for 6 months and got a new job with new insurance, the carrier can only withhold treatment for the condition for 6 months.....something like that.
She doesn’t have to worry about cancelling Obamacare.
Surety profits end Jan 1, 2017 and insurance companies will exit the market completely, leaving you no choices and no coverage.
Good news! You will still be cared for under pre-existing laws and maybe live a long life....
well let’s all destroy the health care system just for her
whatever.
I thought AP posted news, not opinions.
Who the #### is this lady to me that i should believe her?
the majority of the country has been ####ed by obamacare.
That’s all we need to know come voting day.
they certainly could have passed a pre-existing law, not one that destroys everything else!
