So I applied for Medicaid as soon as I found out I was preggers. My job doesn't offer any insurance/benefits and my hubby doesn't get any at his job until he goes to full time which may not be for a long while as he just started.
I was sent insurance cards so I went ahead and had dr appts (costing upwards of $1500+ with blood tests and u/s). Then this weekend, a month after I got my cards, I was sent a letter saying I was denied due to excess income! So now I don't have any insurance and not sure what to do! I am going to call them when they open on Tuesday and see if there is something I can get, I simply cannot afford to pay everything on my own!
I'm worried, I had a mmc this Feb so I need a bit more monitoring this go round. And I'm still paying off my son's medical bills and the bills from the miscarriage. So sick of worrying about money, I feel like I might as well not go to any dr appts and just deliver my child in the bath tub at home
Anyone deal with medicaid? I read something about a group 2 for pregnant women, for ppl that make a bit too much money to qualify for normal medicaid. Because I can't get insurance on my own - it wouldn't be worth it, I'd pay more money than just paying out of pocket just about.
