Affordable Care Act

Many people believe in this country believe that the Affordable Care Act is causing insurance companies to shut down, but the truth of the matter is that the Affordable Care Act is requiring companies to cover basic needs that they are choosing not to include. These needs include prenatal care. Many men are complaining because they don’t need prenatal care so why should they have to pay for such things in their premiums for their insurance. What many of these men don’t realize is that this prenatal care will allow for healthier children such as their own, if they so choose to have any. Many companies are now shutting down because they are unwilling or unable to cover these kinds of needs and therefore, this company is not one of the very effective companies, when they can’t even provide some of the basic needs for their constituents.

Also, the Affordable Care Act make it so that insurance companies cannot deny or kick people of their insurance because of any preexisting condition, such as smoking or cancer or anything that you had before enter a plan. Now instead insurance companies must cover preexisting conditions and cannot deny someone insurance due to them finding a medical condition before they have sought for insurance. Because of the Affordable Care Act people are now able to receive insurance that can help pay for health services for things like cancer, mental disorders, and other diseases.

The Affordable Care Act is a great thing for our country. It provides a great amount more help than harm and it allows for a healthier nation.
