Two years ago my son Caleb 
began having seizures

and I have some questions about Obamacare.

Hi Julie, my name is Dr. Sanjeev K. Sriram
and I've been a physician for 9 years.

and I'm happy to answer your questions.

If we can't pick our own doctor how do I know 
my family is going to get the care they need?

Good news Julie.

You can still pick your own doctor.
Nothing in Obamacare says otherwise.

If you employer already has you covered
you probably won't notice any change at all
and that includes your choice of doctor.

And what am I getting in exchange for
higher premiums and a smaller paycheck?

Great question. First, thanks to Obamacare, 
insurance companies will have to provide 
coverage for pre-existing conditions.

and they can't drop you or even put a cap 
on your coverage if you suddenly get seriously sick. 
So coverage is better and more comprehensive,

and thanks to Obamacare, states are getting 
resources they need to hold insurance companies
accountable when they try to get away 
with hiking premiums.

Now insurance companies have to give consumers 
refunds if they don't spend enough of your 
premium dollar on health care.

Can I really trust the folks in Washington 
with my family's health care?

As a doctor, the real question is can you trust 
the insurance companies with your family's 
health care without the affordable care act?

I know that before Obamacare,
insurance companies were charging women
twice as much as men for their coverage.

They were revoking coverage to cancer patients
after they got their diagnoses.

They were denying care to kids born
with epilepsy or heart murmurs.

In my practice I see Obamacare giving us 
a lot more reason to trust that 
insurance coverage will be more secure.

I think that we all deserve some answers.

Yes we do Julie.

And a great place to seek all your answers is HealthCare.gov

No family should be bankrupted over medical bills

and come October, millions of Americans 
will finally get access to the quality 
affordable health care they deserve.
