I too am looking forward to losing my high risk pool medical insurance, but my state's program started letting enrollees know over a year ago that once the ACA began full implementation, there would "no longer be a need" for the high risk pool. We will be able to find private insurance because no one can refuse us coverage as they had before. We had adequate warning, more than adequate explanation, and lots of time to plan, plus the high risk program is offering assistance to anyone who needs it to navigate the website or figure out their options. <br /><br />And it's definitely not Obama's fault that insurance policies are being cancelled, dropped and revised. Blame the INSURANCE COMPANIES. <br /><br />Having said all that, I do tend to agree about single-payer medical insurance. We already have it for 65+ people, for the most part. But the insurance industry will do everything they can to block it, just as they did for the ACA -- until they realized that they wouldn't lose money or insurers as a result.....Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14661278900773185119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162206974728931335.post-54232615480328312772013-11-25T11:46:58.152-06:002013-11-25T11:46:58.152-06:00Amen to that.
