Absolute hogwash. Insurance companies deny benefits for all kinds of reasons, including signing people up if they have preexisting conditions.
Also, the reason that hospitals can't refuse to treat someone is because of government regulations -- It has nothing to do with insurance companies.

If the Supreme Court overturns it, it couldn't be because they're interpreting that the Constitution prevents the government from forcing citizens to purchase a product, and at an inflated price yet?
The Supreme Court exists to protect the individual's rights. What's surprising is how few Americans understand that.

EVERYONE must pay in order for the plan to work. Otherwise, only sick people who can't get insurance thru their employer will enroll. ACA will cover over 30 million current uninsured Americans. Is ACA perfect? No. But it's a start.
If you're for affordable, quality medical treatment for everyone, single payer is the only way to achieve it. Obama took single payer (Medicare For All) off the table, because if the goal is to get affordable quality medical care for all then everything else pales in comparison.
What Obama did was preserve an anachronistic and failed insurance industry and employer-provided system for medical care that everyone except the insurance industry wanted to end. It's government sanctioned racketeering.
Insurance adds NOTHING to the medical model. The insurance industry is the 'Don Fanucci' (Godfather, Part II) of medical care; the insurance industry is "wetting its beak", letting you get medical care (maybe, if you can afford the deductibles, the co-pays, and if your illness is covered by your policy, but) only if you pay them a gratuity up front.

The insurance industry provides no real service. All it does is take money out of the system. It's nothing more than a blood-sucking middleman.
Meet The New 1%: - Healthcare CEOs replace bankers as America's best paid:
Pity Wall Street's bankers. Once the highest-paid bosses in the land, they are now also-rans. The real money is in healthcare and drugs, according to the latest survey of executive pay. One example is Joel Gemunder, CEO Omnicare, who had a total pay package in 2010 worth $98 million.
By your same argument, you want the insurance industry out of health care, too.

Wish they had WHAT? Insurance?
Having health insurance ≠ medical treatment.
Obama's healthcare legislation doesn't control costs and doesn't deliver medical treatment to everyone (not even those who think they're going to get it). ACA Unlikely to Stem Medical Bankruptcies
People who voted for Obama and Democrats voted to get affordable, quality medical treatment. That was NOT a vote to protect and further enrich the insurance and pharmaceutical industries. Voters did NOT send Obama and Democrats into power to entrench the insurance industry as the gatekeepers to being able to get medical treatment. Voters did NOT send Obama and Democrats to Washington to continue tying insurance benefits to their employment.
Yet that is precisely what Obama and the DLC-controlled Democrats did.
