The Faces of Health Care: Siobhan F.

Summary: 
Read a note thanking President Obama for all the ACA has done from Siobhan F. in McKinney, Texas.

"It is because of ‘Obama Care’ and the revisions to prenatal coverage that we are able to both afford medical coverage for our family and grow our family."

— Siobhan F.


Siobhan is a wife and mother from McKinney, Texas. When she was laid off last year, she lost health care benefits -- and because her husband’s company didn’t offer coverage, her family was left without any access to health care.

She ultimately found another job, but the premiums were still too expensive.

But, with the passage of the Affordable Care Act, all of that changed. Now, under the ACA, Siobhan not only can find coverage at an affordable rate, but knew she had quality maternity and prenatal coverage when she found out she was expecting a baby. As Siobhan said, access to affordable health care is “a blessing that no family should be denied.”

“I applaud you and your team for all that you have done to make a difference and make lives better," she wrote in a letter to the President. "You have impacted my family in ways that are priceless and I can not thank you enough.”
