The Realities of DemocratCare…. or ‘They Don’t Call us “The Right!” For Nothing.’ Part IV

Democrat Care is so good…Even Doctors are losing their coverage

Obamacare, aka the Affordable Care Act, came packaged with lofty promises. President Obama said his law was supposed to make denials of insurance based on pre-existing conditions a thing of the past. President Obama specifically promised that Americans would no longer be denied coverage based on pre-existing conditions, along with promising that if we like our doctors and current health care plans, we can keep them.

So imagine Dr. Carpenter’s shock when he received the news that he and his family were losing their health insurance at the end of this year.

“I was at my mother-in-law’s birthday party last week when she asked me, ‘What are you gonna do about health insurance?’” She told him that his wife’s employer is sending out letters informing its staff that it is dropping their Blue Cross Blue Shield health plans.

Carpenter liked the Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance plan that he and his family were on. It was stable and provided excellent care for many years through several illnesses.

His wife’s employer has dropped these plans due to Obamacare. “Yes, absolutely,” Carpenter says.

“Dr. Shaun Carpenter, 41, is a board certified emergency physician in the New Orleans area. He was part of a rescue team that helped evacuate critical patients during Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Dr. Carpenter is a family man, father of three children with another on the way. He also owns his own business, a private medical practice, and has several patents pending for wound-healing products. … Shaun Carpenter is also a patient. A few years ago he was diagnosed with a serious blood disorder called hereditary hemochromatosis.”

A Patient who got kicked off the plan he liked.  Do I need to repeat myself?
