Analysis of the Article Entitled How Obama Care Is Failing Me by Jean Card - Assignment Example

Though Jean Card has known about the importance and the benefit of Obama care for long in terms of affordability and availability, she has never tried it.She reports having quit her job in April this year for self-employment. Prior to quitting her job, COBRA Health Insurance Company covered her where she made a monthly contribution of 1500 dollars. She decided that since she could not afford to pay 12000 dollars to health care for her first year in self-employment, she would seek more affordable coverage.

She found out that she was only eligible for cheaper insurance at this time of the year based on “special enrollment." This “special enrollment” includes elements like unexpected divorce, the birth of a baby, and job loss among other circumstances that would make paying the needed money for health cover hard.Though this is a national case of changes in health care, the impact is far felt within the country. The reason for such ignorance is that sources of education for most people on health care changes and the requirement are not reliable and do not give finer details of options that are present.
