Absolutely, because the ACA also covers private health insurance. I think a lot of Americans will be very surprised that, if the ACA goes away in this court case, they no longer will be able to cover their children up to 26, that we will end up with no preventative coverage, that these vaccines won't be covered, and lifetime limits will be imposed again on health insurance. So, this is a disaster in the making.
