True Story: How the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) Helped One Local Family


My wife was raised in South King County and has a large extended family that still resides there. While enjoying a community event there last weekend, one of her cousins (by marriage) told me how Obamacare allowed her twenty-something daughter to be covered under her parents' health insurance. Later, facing a diagnosis of a life-threatening condition requiring major surgery and recovery, their daughter was able to receive the care she needed without having to pay out of pocket medical fees of over $500,000. MORE information about the Affordable Care Act here.
Howie P.S.: This represents the kind of country I want to live in!
