Go to the nearest hospital, get treated for heart attack/stroke and stabilized, and get a lifeline helo flight back to your regular hospital. Your life’s worth something; money can be replaced.

I’ve heard that in some cases the coverage does not cross county lines.

You have heard correctly. In the Los Angeles area, for example, the Anthem plans have networks that are limited by county, and no out of network coverage. So if you live in Riverside you don't have any insurance coverage at the hospitals in Los Angeles.

Once people realize what no out of network coverage means in practice, they'll realize that they have been completely mislead and cheated by Obamacare.

and you get severely sick or injured at work, you may be outside your coverage area. So you may have to commute back home in the throes of a heart attack if you have any expectation of your insurance covering the hospital costs.

That's totally false. Federal law requires that bona fide emergency treatment be covered anywhere in the U.S.A. You may be transferred after stabilized.

Under Obamacare, I think you would have been out of luck even for emergency care.

False again. Quit spreading crap.

I posted about a couple of weeks ago....

Obamacare restricts to a narrow network of providers....expect to see a requirement for an internal passport for travel outside your "network area".....just like the internal passports used in the old Soviet Union.

I just found out today that as of January 1, my family doctor who has been my lead doctor on literally every level for years, has opted out of ALL of his hospital affiliations. These are six of the highest rated hospitals in the tri-county area. He is staying in private practice, but no more hospitals. It’s very frightening to watch this slow motion disaster.

I live two hundred miles from Washington. If there is a call for a massive, peaceful, takeover of Washington’s federal facilities, I will go. I think there are millions of others who feel the same way. I figure later in the Spring, when the cold weather has abated.

>> “People will be afraid to leave home. No joke.” <<

.
Get serious!

I haven’t had health insurance for 25 years, and didn’t use it when I had it.

Health insurance shortens your life; nobody needs it.

The end game is to flip Texas. Once that happens, we’ll never see a Republican in the White House again.

"ObamaCARE is not about medical care, it is about redistribution and fraud."

More than that....it's about control. Total control over Americans' lives. And now they (leftists) have got it. Welkome to Amerikka, Obama-style. Fundamentally transformed, indeed.

and for that time period the average age at death was early 40’s, a large percentage of children did not survive childhood, and many women died in and around childbirth. I am glad to still be here to see my grandchildren and to have a reasonable chance at seeing their children. I will continue to avail myself of health care thank you.

Just wow! The horror of Obamacare continues.

How long will it be before people grab the pitchforks, light the torches, and head toward D.C. to deal with these elitist bastards?

(Never forget that they EXEMPTED themselves, and their corporate wealthy buddies from this nightmare.)

I live near the state line and my doctor is across the border. If I get thrown onto obamacare, I probably wont get to keep my doctor because she’ll be out of network.

What are the poor supposed to do when they get sick or have accidents while on vacation?
