Linda and Larry Drain have been married for 33 years but are now forced to separate because of the pitfalls of Obamacare and their state Medicaid program .
Stuck in a health care coverage gap, their combined income is too little to qualify for Obamacare subsidies yet exceeds the limit on unearned income to qualify for TennCare after Larry opted for early retirement.
Linda has epilepsy and must take expensive medication so she can’t do without insurance. Larry is without insurance but he has a hernia and is living on hope that he suffers no complications as he can’t afford surgery.
They have been appealing to Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam in numerous letters to expand TennCare.

Talk about a true crime on the Innocent.
Divorcing because of Obamacare? Come on now what a bush league article
All they need to do is go south of the border and come back as illegal aliens, then all will be good – free healthcare!!!
Trust in The Lord.
Well if you all look at what is going on and what Obama is doing and giving the illegals everything and they don’t have to pay a damn thing and they are getting what we have worked for and will never get when we need it ..
Sad
WELL My husband lost his JOB due to Medical and we have NO more Insurance and he and I both have medical issues.. But he is STUCK with me… If I go to the hospital will they kick me out?? NO they will have to write it off as a HARDSHIP CASE.
This is absolutely absurd. Obama is the kin if Satan.
They don’t have to get a divorce if they know how to work the system like my ex parent inlaws did and are doing
I don’t know who screwed up this country worse the lawyers, bureaucrats, and/or the career politicians, then again all three are like social deceases!
