My brother just completed treatment for prostate cancer. Without the ACA that probably wouldn't have been an option. He is grateful he got it done before he loses his coverage, but he worries about what might happen if the cancer returns. He should worry. We all should. The sick bastards!

Depending on where he lives he should ask his hospital if they offer charity care

He lives in TX. Galveston was an option but having insurance was the far better option. Plus, those charitable hospitals will have to scale back once they lose the ACA and many Medicaid payments.

Correct. And for those Republicans who cant connect dots, are the health insurance companies going to take the loss? Nope, people with insurance rates will raise, so more of us will lose our insurance. Blame Republicans.
