I think the pre existing condition is an issue that should be fixed.

If you have a pre-existing condition and then buy a plan that pays to treat that condition at a premium rate that does not cover the costs of doing so then what you have purchased is not insurance, it is welfare.

There are many stories of people being dropped from insurance plans once they get a major illness.
In some cases the employers cut them loose to lessen costs.
That was one of the few issues I thought should have been addressed.
