My mom is a public school teacher. Aka, she is under-paid and overworked. What kept her going was the health insurance. Due to the new laws, they had to change their plans.
All our prescriptions have tripled in price. Some have gone up times 12!
A visit to a urgent care clinic is now $40, when it was free after the deductibles.
Regular doctor is $20 co-pay. Same as above, free after deductible.
Our deductible also got MASSIVE!
Not to mention this new plan costs about 21% more than the old one.
She hasn't seen a pay raise in 5 years either.
But this really fits my family hard. I personally have a ton of health issues. Mental Health is going to be a killer, but I can't not seek the treatment.
Sorry had to vent.
