So my daughter applied for Medicaid since she can not afford all her medicines, doctor visits, and hospital bills. They turned her down. So what does she need to do? Go get knocked up? Stop working?
Even if she gets knocked up, all she will get is medicaid while she is pregnant. She would have to stop working, bring in no income, and apply for disability.
Now if she has medications she is struggling to afford, she needs to see if she can switch to generic, most generic meds are like $4 to fill. If not, then most pharamcutical companies have assitance programs for people who cannot afford all their meds, have no insurance, and do not qualify for medicaid or medicare. I might be able to help you look into those, if you can pm a list of her meds.
Is there a free, or reduced clinic in her area?
She needs to be receiving disability and/or have a child. Difficult for a working adult to get help with health care.
In Ohio, as long as you are income eligible and have children you are legally responsible for, you continue to get Medicaid even after having the child. Surprised to hear otherwise in other states. Intersting.
