Thanks for correcting me. I could've sworn I saw annual maximums when I looked on healthcare.gov but maybe I mistook the max out of pocket for a max annual.

The example I used is the case presented in the video. I just googled for Bob Weinkauf.

I was also curious when this happened. Looks likely to be under the ACA unless it took years to hit the news though.

So I don't know. Maybe he went to the emergency room and it was out of network under his plan, leaving him to shoulder the costs. I didn't dig much after skimming for an approximate date.
