Good question. I don’t know. My mom is on Medicare and she has a supplemental insurance as a back up for catastrophic care. She lost 3 of her doctor’s due to ACA coming into effect because her doctors went off the exchange and petitioned the government to be taken off of ACA so they could keep their old patients who have been seeing them for decades. The government review board says a decision will be made 6 to 12 months from submission of request.

My mom is 71 and her doctors are some of the most important people in her life. Again, that’s just Medicare...not disability in her case.

The really sad thing that Obama or the democrats and congress for that matter don’t really care what happens to your mom and that she may lose her doctors. I am really nervous about the future are they just going to kill us all off?
