I understand what you are going thru. I still have papers to take into medicaid. If that doesn't go thru with all the paperwork they need. I'm dead.

With all the cuts going on, it scares me a little.
This was in the news today:

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. =/
First of all thank you so much. They haven't taken him off Medicaid, they just gave him a really high share of cost. We've fought for the past to months to get it changed or lowered but his worker is refusing to do it. He goes to a cancer treatment center that is 90% Medicaid and they're saying their hands are tied until his monthly share of cost is met. He was in the ER two weeks ago and Medicaid refused to have him admitted. Despite doctors recommendations! His white count was 3xs what should've been. No one is willing to step up. It's frustrating cuz I can only argue so much. I gotta try to raise the money.$1000 by September 1st so he can have surgery to get his chemo port or he can't continue chemo. We had an advocate call the hospital to see if they would donate the surgery but they didn't call her back.*smh*My opinion of all this and I did have cancer is that they will not take him off of medicaid. Some people they will.But durring the time that he needs his kemo or really expensive meds. His dr. should help him get funds immediatly. Get the dr, the councelor, from the hospital. They should be doing every thing financially they can to help you. They know you don't need this added stress. Miracles and tons of blessings on you and your family. Love Teresa
