'I'm going to die': Grim reality hits as cancer patient's health costs rocket nearly 900%

Johana Scott is one of more than 20 million Americans who turned the calendar page to a health care crisis after her enhanced tax credits expired Jan. 1 for the Affordable Care Act.

The Texas woman, who was diagnosed with Stage 3 endometrial cancer in February, logged into her health insurance account on Dec. 3 and found her usual premium of about $200 a month had jumped to $1,725 for the same plan. She told MS NOW that she's now not sure what she'll do if lawmakers don't extend the enhanced tax credits.
