Remembered by whom?

For the CTL family Obamacare (actually Romneycare) has been a lifesaver.

Our silver level policy underwritten by Connecticare (our insurance carrier prior to the ACA)costs us $600 less per month than we paid 4 years ago. Our 20 year old is still covered on our policy. The annual 1 million dollar cap no longer exists. Mrs. CTL spent a month on life support in ICU and has had 10 surgeries this year…amount billed approaching $3 million. Our out of pocket: $980

We did not have to give up a single medical provider and gained several previously not covered by our plan.

ACA is different in every state. The Health Exchange here in CT works well….BTW my premium for 2017 actually decreased $5 per month. The only change in our coverage is an increase to $700 deductible per person in 2017 from $500 and the family maximum deductible rises to $1400 from $1000.
