re: #41 lawhawk

The contractor for my new house being built has no insurance (premiums were beyond his income). His wife got very sick a couple of months ago and needed all sorts of high dollar tests and they’re looking at a $20,000 medical bill they have no way of being able to pay. He had no idea that “Obamacare” will help his family (they have kids). I told him about the kynect program, gave him what information and resources I had available at the time. He told me a couple of weeks ago that he’ll be signing up October 1.
I know too many people here who are working themselves to death who can’t afford health insurance or even basic healthcare…they wait until they are literally on their deathbeds, end up in the ER, and faced with massive bills as a result.
One at a time, I’m spreading the word about kynect and every single person I’ve spoken with have been very receptive to the program.
