My Restasis eye drops are no longer covered under insurance because the insurance companies are trying to find any way to cut costs. My eyes hurt almost 100% of the time, and I can't afford the only medication that works, and that I was on for years before ACA. I don't want to get plugs put in, but that may be the only choice.

ETA: If I hadn't gotten gap coverage to cover high deductibles, my family couldn't afford to go to the doctor ever.

ETA2: The prescription costs $425, after discount, and doesn't count toward my deductible.

Our store had to cut the 65 employees down to under 50 to 49. Too low, very hard on the remaining 49 physically. Also,after going to 49 employees, we got a threatening letter saying we would be fined $20,000.00 if we didn't take out Obamacare. The Federal Gov't bureaucrat that came in to talk to us was an anti-business ultra liberal smart-arse that was very threatening with the fine in 30 days if we didn't take out the Obamacare against our wishes. We delayed to see if Trump could win, and repeal and replace it. We'll see what happens.
