I have never spent a day in the hospital, take no medication and have a small business. I have been denied 3 times by insurance companies. This is out of control. Soon I will no longer be able to afford insurance.

I was on the phone with my insurance and at the end of the conversation the woman thought I had hung up and said to a co worker"I never know what I'm allowed to tell them and what I'm not". I just don't get how we lost control over our health! We pay them huge amounts of money and THEY decide if you can be treated or how much in addition you have to pay! And you just never know if what is true today will be true tomorrw.

I lost my job 3 years ago and have been living off savings while looking for work. I purchase my own insurance and it is expensive and covers very little. I am afraid for the future when I run out of money and can't afford insurance or anything else.
