I have great insurance

But I would have been dead eight years ago if there were no #PPACA. I would've simply said "my family cannot bankrupt itself to treat my incurable condition", and I'd discontinue treatment. Bang, I'm dead

That's what conservatives dream of doing: Killing off people like me

Welcome, Mr. President (yes, real). My #PPACA story: My entire maternal family suffers from PCOS. We also have histories of endometriosis and fibroids. I receive annual well woman visits and LARCs (medically necessary treatment) at no cost sharing. #thanksobama

Millions will see rise in health insurance premiums if federal subsidies expire • Stateline Federal subsidies that help people purchase health care coverage through the Affordable Care Act are set to expire at the end of 2025.

If the enhanced #ACASubsidies go away, #premium payments will increase by an average of more than 75%. Some people would see their payments double. #ACA #PPACA #SoundTheAlarm #Subsidies #HealthInsurance

Pa. health insurance overseer warns of big cost spike if subsidies aren’t renewed Additional federal subsidies to Affordable Care Act health plans have pumped hundreds of millions into Pa. - but could be on the chopping block as federal Republicans contemplate cuts.

Even before #PPACA, a loss ratio around 72% was the industry standard for health insurance. But auto insurers generally start claiming they "need" to hike rates somewhere around 50%, and 30-40% is considered optimal.
