My daughter has a rare disease, and I have posted before. Our insurance has paid over $150,000 in surgeries for her, to try to give her a normal life again.

If the Republicans stay in power, insurance companies may regain the ability to reject customers who have “pre-existing” conditions, and she would be one of those people.

She is 7. She needs medical care. We are not wealthy and paying for her treatment out of pocket would financially ruin us, if we even managed it.

Please don’t vote for the people who are going to ruin my daughter ‘s ability to live a normal life. Vote Democratic.

I lost my health insurance when my wife got replaced with guest workers because Democrats expanded the number of HIBs and OPTs. Will never vote for the party of Facebook and zuckerberg

Obamacare actually increased insurance costs for many people because it covers stuff that many people need

Health Insurance should be more like Auto Insurance you select the level of coverage you actually need

As far as preexisting conditions are concerned all the bills never kicked people off as long as they didn't have a lapse in coverage of more than I think 6 months which makes sense and solves the free rider problem

This is such an awful comparison. What happens when you get cancer, but you bought cheap "coverage" that doesn't include cancer? Either you die in misery (I don't want to live in a country like that....especially when we are the richest country in the world) or you leave the hospital/doctors to eat the cost of your care and they pass along those costs to me (the scenario being proposed by the GOP)?

How about we just make it a statutory requirement that all plans cover cancer? That makes it cheaper for everyone in the long run.

This is rather silly. Typically healthcare coverage levels has to do with provider network access, procedures/drugs, initial deductibles, co-pays, and maximum lifetime benefits. Are there any health insurance that excludes cancer?

Not right now, because of OBAMACARE.

Before that, cancer patients were routinely denied coverage because the insurer claimed their cancer was a pre-existing condition.

Read/watch "The Rainmaker" -- all about how insurers used to simply deny every claim until the plaintiff died.

Now you can have Obamacare and they will make you wait months toyears for treatment or operations. Plus insurer after insurer is pulling out citing the costs overwhelm the premiums.

BS.

The Trump administration has done everything in their power to make Obamacare unreasonable for insurance companies. Instead of trying to make it work they are trying to make it fail.

And Obamacare has nothing to do with wait times.

They definitely could “bounce” you i they were allowed to.

Cobra is insanely expensive, not meant to be long term, etc.

Or you go to an experimental program at NIH, a university hospital, or cancer research center. The best care is there

Right, because they accept everyone.

Better plan: Thoughts and prayers. Free and it works if God likes you.

You sound a bit thick to think that thoughts and prayers cure cancer. It is not easy to get into these programs but if you have no health problems nsurance civetage, jyiur chances of getting on increase greatly. If your children have cancer, St Jude’s will take them or refer them to an affiliated program. Obviously, this is not ideal. But you don’t have to dine in misery from cancer as another poster suggested. There are other ways to obtain treatment.

The people who are breaking the system are those who smoke, drink, and eat to excess. You can offer many of these addictive personalities programs to stop all thre, and they do nothing until diagnosed with lung cancer, liver failure, or suffer a heart attack. Then they demand top quality care.

OP here. Pp I will assume that you mean well and are just completely oblivious. Relying on charity and experiments to provide healthcare in a nation of 300 million people is absurd on its face. Please stop embarrassing yourself.

You created your daughter. It is your responsibility to give her a normal life, not mine. You repeat that your daughter will contribute to the common good by paying taxes. Unless she already had a well paying job, tell me how you can guarantee that she will be able to make that contribution.

Your inability to read us the embarrassment. I specifically said that tell my on charity was not ideal. But it was one way not to die in misery from cancer as another poster suggested. Obviously, among 30@ million people, many will be coveted by health insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, or afford private pay. If you have none of these and have cancer , why wouldn’t you seek help through a charity or research or teaching institution.

Not ideal? More like not worth typing, like everything else you wrote (including your inability to register pp’s blatant sarcasm).

Sorry, I had you confused with another poster whose daughter had a rare condition but, if treated, would contribute by paying taxes. Is that part of your expectation for your daughter?

You seem pretty terrible so I don’t want to get into a back and forth with you, but like most parents I hope my child lives to pay taxes and I can’t guarantee anything especially since she has already had a debilitating health issue.
