WASHINGTON – MARCH 10: Desni Crock (L) of Marietta, Ohio, and her three-year-old daughter Bridget (R) attend a forum to tell their stories about denied coverage by insurance companies March 10, 2010 on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. Bridget was diagnosed with a rare form of lung cancer in 2008 and she was denied with coverage for a more than $35,000 treatment bill in the first two months from an out-of-network hospital. Her current insurance plan only covers 60% of the high cost test and treatment bills with a $12,000-deducible. (Photo by Alex Wong/Getty Images)
