My primary issue with American health care though correct me if I ' m mistaken and it is an international issue is that insurance can deny you coverage for any preexisting reason . I get my insurance through my employer , but every year , we have to submit our forms to the open market , just to see what deal we ' d get there , so that we have an informed contract if we choose to use the employee healthcare . and every year , I ' m denied by at least one insurer . Sometimes , it ' s because I have immediate family members who have had cancer . Sometimes , because I had a heart surgery when I was an infant even though it fixed the problem and I was cleared from cardiac care when I was like five . This last time , it was because I have a tilted uterus . Which I ' m pretty sure is not even a medical issue . It ' s frustrating because insurers that reject me one year accept me the next . Ugh .
