[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Not sure why this was moved from Off-Topic to the Political Discussion forum, because I had no intention of discussing the politics behind it or getting into partisan debates about who was to blame for what. I was just wondering what others thought about how this might play out and what my options are, given that I have some pre-existing (but not expensive to manage) conditions? I could go on COBRA, but that's very expensive. I feel stuck and like the rug might get pulled out from under me.[/quote]
I'm hopeful that even if they pull ACA, they will mandate that health insurance providers not deny people based on pre-existing conditions, and also keep the removal of lifetime max cap.  These two things were my biggest issues with insurance pre ACA. I saw someone go bankrupt because they had reached the lifetime max on their insurance, then died penniless.  I couldn't get coverage because of my pre existing condition.[/quote]

Well wouldn't that be magic?  Repeal the system that makes the pre-existing exclusion rule possible, but keep the rule.

OK then, I'll wait until I have cancer and then apply for insurance when I need it.[/quote]
