$40/mo?! Stay healthy my friend!
And did you really think that your employer health care wasn't improved by the ACA.....same exact reforms RE pre-existing conditions, no limits on lifetime coverage and preventive care?
Or do you think that what the GOP is proposing isn't going to take a swipe at you?
Reads to me as though ya'll gonna be at the mercy of bastions of healthcare coverage like MS, AL, LA. LOL!

What's more, weakening of essential health benefits could also affect people with health coverage through their jobs, experts say.
Obamacare required all health insurance plans, including those provided through an employer, to have an out-of-pocket maximum limiting the amount that the patient would have to pay in a given year.

But that ceiling only applies to benefits that are considered essential health benefits. Under the GOP bill, employers could choose any state's definition of essential health benefits, and those seeking to lower costs could gravitate toward the skimpier ones. This would leave workers vulnerable to catastrophic expenses if they get a serious injury or health diagnosis.
