Reply #68: Gaspee, get you a caseworker... [View All]

There should be one at the clinic, hospital or if need be at the public assistance office. Caseworkers usually know ways to get your medical needs taken care of. There are certain medical organizations/corporations that will pay some of these bills in order to get tax write offs. They also know how to handle the paper work. I know if I had not gotten disability when I did there were several caseworkers that had them lined up for me. Also, my original case worker worked her behind off to get my disability for me, along with the great clinic GP I found. I was volunteering for Obama in 2004 when he found out I had no insurance and all these problems he had some of his staff help me find a 'free clinic'.

I was in a big mess in 2004-2006. Sixty one, disabled due to health problems and dying from those problems and heart disease due to no health care benefits. Still struggle but doing a lot better as far as having medicaid and SS pension.

I don't think they will hold the house against your mother, but if they do there are ways of handling that. Your aunts will probably know the ropes since they have been in the system for a while.
