I had insurance, when I was diagnosed, but subsequently with the loss of my job, also lost my
health insurance, and even though, I automatically qualified for Social Security Disability, it took several months, even after their decision, I was told, that they have a 2 year waiting period for Medicare, so I still have no health insurance, but he still wants me to see him, he only charges me $50.00 a visit. Obviously, you cannot pay for MRI's, etc.
