The recently passed health care law — <u>which congressional Republicans are unanimously trying to repeal</u> — includes a whole host of protections that would rein in the ability for health insurers to drop patients for frivolous reasons like this. If Republicans are successful, these protections would disappear.
However, in the long run, it’s worth noting that one of the best ways to prevent the situation that the Flanagans are in is to offer them access to a public, not-for-profit system like Medicare, <u>which has a higher approval rating than private insurance, runs more efficiently than any private insurer, and that most Americans want to be able to join. </u> </div></div>
