LaNika: I am a JV Volleyball coach as well as a middle school coach. It's a joy. I love
working with them; they inspire me. I've been on and off insurance ever since I got out
of college. At first I didn't think I needed it. I'll just be uninsured; I'm healthy. It
wasn't until I had that collision while I was playing volleyball and suffered that mild
concussion that I'm like, okay, maybe I'm not invincible. You know anything can happen.
So I just went ahead and signed up. I went to HealthCare.gov; chose a plan that's normally
$308. And with my tax credit I pay $97.03. That's awesome! I received my health insurance
card. I felt like a kid who just received their driver's license, you know, dancing
around the house, like "Yeah!" I can go see my doctor when I want to. I have so much peace
of mind, just having health insurance, and then to know that it's even affordable. Everybody
should be covered. I'm at peace, being covered.
