Interesting read. What Barbara posted about medical bills is bullcocky. (See quote below.) Insurance via the Marketplace is quality insurance that has to provide a quality level of coverage. These policies have out of pocket expense limits. There is no way in HELL Bob owes 440k in medical bills if Tammy had health insurance through what Barbara calls "Obamacare." There's no way an appendectomy could deplete family's annual coverage. Those types of policies are against the law now. Obamacare outlawed annual and lifetime dollar limit caps on medical insurance policies. Either Barbara is lying or Bob lied to her or Bob is clueless.
JMO--Thank you for posting this. I think B posts "Obamacare" because there are folks who really don't understand what health insurance is, (and why having it is good for everybody), they just don't like a certain person.
First, I'm fairly certain TM's insurance has an actual name, and it isn't Obamacare. I think accuracy counts.
Second, I'm not sure I believe the billing has already totally 100% cycled through.
Third, are B&B asserting that TM's health insurance has absolutely no catastrophic yearly cost cap? I think it's important they are transparent on this particular issue. (These types of caps are a maximum out of pocket to the consumer billing amount during the calendar year. It doesn't cap "care", it caps billing to the patient.)
And I also agree it appears B&B aren't telling the full story.
