Laura Packard
Cancer Survivor and Health Care Advocate
Laura Packard is a cancer survivor and health care activist from Denver. In the spring of 2017, she was diagnosed with cancer (stage 4 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma). After a grueling 6 months of chemotherapy and a month of radiation treatment, she is in remission. She says the Affordable Care Act saved her life.
Mindy Salango
Type 1 Diabetic and Health Care Advocate
Mindy Salango is a mom and Type 1 diabetic. Even though she has health insurance through her employer, Mindy still spends about $350 every month paying for her prescription medications, insulins, and other diabetes supplies she needs to stay healthy and alive.
Himali Patel
Patient Storyteller and Health Care Advocate
Himali Patel is a small business owner who relies on the ACA. Patel, an Atlantan who has multiple medical conditions, has been getting her health insurance through the Georgia exchange. She had been paying $400 a month, but with the American Rescue Plan subsidy, her premium dropped to about $60.
