Deborah De Riviera is a nurse from Maine.

Deborah is a nurse from Maine. Her husband depends on Medicare and she depends on the affordable coverage she got on the marketplace.

I am a nurse whose husband was on Medicare. We had to purchase my health insurance out-of-pocket since I worked per diem. I injured both my back and knee. When I bought [health insurance] on the Marketplace. I was able to get the MRIs, total knee replacement and therapy for both the knee and…[my] back. I am very grateful to have been able to purchase insurance on the Marketplace. We didn’t receive a subsidy for the policy but it was still much more affordable than the private policy had been.
