DR Dan, I am so sorry about your insurance situation. Are you in a state that did not expand the Medicaid part of the ACA? The expansion of medicaid was to cover people in your situation, although some states did not implement it, unfortunately.

No, I am just in the "make too much" on disability category, which is a joke because I can barely meet the bills, the rent and I suppose if I gave up eating altogether, I would be able to afford health care premiums.  Besides, I've been on Medicaid and that doesn't cover the kinds of things I need in my treatment.  I have Native friends who are in another government-run health system, Indian Health Service, and that's another sorry excuse.  The government can't even run a decent postal service or DMV, so where's the surprise that I "make too much"?  The only two options I have right now are keel over dead or go and live on the streets because those are the only two circumstances where I will have some form of coverage.


How long have you been on Social Security Disability?

From what I hear the Oregon Health Plan is very good, however, it doesn't mean DR Dan would qualify for it.

Well, not if he lives in Arizona.

OK, ignore the double chin and the wrinkly neck and take a look at the lovely necklace Richard gave me yesterday


The necklace is as lovely as the wearer.

It is a beautiful necklace, DR Ginny, as is the person modeling it!

Hello, Gentle Dear Readers.


Just back from our road trip, so haven't caught up yet. I also wanted to let you all know that tomorrow morning I will be having some surgery. Nothing critical or dire, but necessary. And it is outpatient, so I should be home by mid afternoon. But I may not be up to logging on at that point, so I didn't want anyone to be alarmed at my absence between the trip and the medical stuff.


Hope to rejoin you all at the earliest opportunity!


Surgery vibes to DR SoupySales!

I certainly understand where Dan is coming from.  When I was approved for SS Disability, I was stunned that I had to wait 24 months before I could receive Medicare.   Luckily I was able to take advantage of COBRA medical from my former employer.   But it still cost me over $600.00 a month to keep that coverage in effect.

Explain the logic of that to me.  You are disabled, so you are unable to work; but you have to wait two whole years before you qualify for medical to help you with your disability.

Did anyone watch what I've heard was a totally disgusting remake of Rosemary's Baby?

I didn't watch it.  I was thinking about it, but forgot to set my DVR.  Spoo. ::)
