The Faces of Health Care: Jeff R.
"Being in a wheelchair is tough enough, but being financially strapped as well makes it even tougher. The $600 a month the Affordable Care Act is saving me will help me greatly."
Twenty-six years ago, Jeff R.'s life changed forever. A car accident left him in a wheelchair, making health care a non-negotiable for him. A resident of Riverside, California, he was paying more than $900 a month for health care.
Now, thanks to the ACA, Jeff's health care plan is costing him $600 less per month than it used to. So he wrote to the President:
"In my 42 years of life, you are the only president that has changed my life in a major way -- being in a wheelchair is tough enough, but being financially strapped as well makes it even tougher. The $600 a month the ACA is saving me will help me greatly. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."
