Heart and breathing problems covered by dads insurance my entire life - now over 26, can't afford a doctor. what are my options?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: 1. Search for private insurance - if within 60 days of old policy expiring, u can get certificate of insurance from old company to give to new company - they can't deny pre-existing conditions then. 2. Get it through your job or get a job with a health plan. 3. If income is low enough, may qualify for medicaid 4. Check into community clinics in area 5. Have to sacrifice luxuries for your health.
