At the recent meeting of the Catholic Health Association, a series of videos highlighted some of the benefits that accrue from the passage of the Affordable Care Act. One features the story of a family, the Malings, whose daughter was diagnosed with cancer at an early age in which the mother recalls worrying about the fact that this would be a pre-existing condition for the rest of the young girl's life. When the health care reform law passed, the mother said she felt like a huge weight had been lifted from her.
