| Educate your member of Congress! Take Action Now! | |
The U.S. House of Representatives will resume activity on health care reform and have scheduled a vote on H.R. 2, a bill to repeal the Affordable Care Act, for next Wednesday, January 19. This bill will repeal a number of provisions that are important to the comprehensive health care of individuals with bleeding disorders, including:
- No lifetime dollar limits and restrictions on annual dollar limits
- Children can stay on their parents policy until the age of 26
- No preexisting condition exclusion for children
- No recessions of coverage
- No deductible or cost sharing for preventative visits
- No higher co-pay or higher co-insurance rates for out of network emergency services
Take Action Now! Your Member of Congress might be newly elected or may need a reintroduction to bleeding disorders. Use HFA's Legislative Action Center to find and contact your legislator. Be concise and tell your story!
Why is health care reform important to you and your family? There is no better time than the present to tell your story and make sure your representative knows what's important to you!
