Before the Senate votes on Watch Believer Onlineits bill to repeal the Affordable Care Act, many people are sharing stories of how the bill would affect them.
One story struck a chord with thousands of Twitter users this weekend. The mom of 3-year-old Ethan Vikash shared a photo of a medical bill for her son's open heart surgery. The 24-line item bill came to $231,115 for 10 hours in surgery, one week in the hospital's cardiac intensive care unit, and one week on the hospital's cardiac floor.
With insurance, Ethan's family only had to pay $500 out-of-pocket. But if Congress passes a healthcare bill that imposes lifetime caps on what insurance companies will cover, families that deal with childhood illnesses or heart conditions like Ethan's would be well beyond priced out of life-saving care.
The thread covering the cost of Ethan's healthcare got turned into a Twitter moment.
This little boy's treatment will become unaffordable under the new health care billThe story resonated with thousands of Twitter users who are scared about what will happen if Congress and President Donald Trump gut the Affordable Care Act's restrictions on lifetime caps.
