I'm 18.. my mom and dad can't afford to have health insurance for me.. and I'm inbetween jobs right now.. but i really need to see a doctor. I live with my dad and he doesn't make that much.. how do i qualify for like medicare or something can help me see a doctor??
Answer:
You wont qualify for medicare or medicaid unless you have a disability. My suggestion to you is hit the emergency room. You can usually have them bill you instead of paying for it then and there. After that you can set up a payment plan. Some hospitals also can adjust your bill based on income if you qualify. You can apply for that with the financial dept at the time of or after your er visit.If you need to see the doc because you are pregnant or other sexual health concerns, go to planned parenthood or the health dept.
Other thought: Are there any free or reduced clinics in your area?And in most cases parents cant carry a child over 18 if they are not a full time student, so it may not be that they can't afford to, but actually can't.
sorry if you live in the united states you dont qualify for anything. if you are in school then you can go there. if its an emergency you can get admitted to most emergency rooms. where i live they don't take people without insurance anymore though. if its non-emergency maybe you can get some help on the alternative medicine board here.
If you're really in a bind, go to your county hospital. Most likely you can get some help there. After all that's what property %26 state income taxes are for to help people like you when they need it. I know the illegal aliens sure as hell take advantage of this where I live.
I go through Ameriplan. It's not exactly insurance but... it does the same as insurance for me. And it's so much less. Just check it out, the site I went to is below. Best of Luck.http://www.mybenefitsplus.com/40233517...
