Quote:I oppose it in a general sense. If you got a Glioblastoma diagnosis last week I shouldn't have to issue you a policy. If you had cataract surgery 15 years ago, that's a different story.

 

Funny you mention that because I am coming from the former because my father had/has Glioblastoma and is one of the people currently living to actually tell about it. Luckily he has Medicare, supplemental insurance, and an Aflac cancer policy to go on top of that. I have seen the brain surgery bills, chemo bills, radiation bills, and the mirage of tests that go along with it and there is no way 99.9999% of the population could pay for that without insurance.

 

No doubt it medical insurance is a tough subject, but personal experiences can really make you change how you look at it. It will be interesting to see what changes are coming down the road, if any.
