This story is misleading. His care would be covered under the so called Affordable Care Act but he balked at the $800.00 a month premium. Now if that premium covered both he and his wife that is an excellent price. Even if it was for him alone it was a dang good rate.
I don’t like Obamacare but some people do benefit from it and it reads as though he would have been one of them. Cancer treatment is very expensive and getting that treatment for a cost of $800.00 a month plus his deductibles means he comes out way ahead cost wise. If he elected to reject the coverage because of cost maybe he never had to shop for an individual policy before, if he had he would realize just how inexpensive $800.00 per month for insurance really is.
I’ll wager that maybe 1 out of 25 people who read the article will understand that is NOT the Obamacare plan that refused the chemo.
