insurance

Avatar f tn Go to your local department of human services.. They will help you figure it out and tell you what forms to fill out.. I'm fairly positive every state has some form of state funded health care, for instance I live in Oregon so we have the 'oregon health plan' being jobless and pregnant will most likely garuntee you'll be covered..
Avatar f tn Oops wasn't done posting. Lol I'm a dental assistant but my boss doesn't offer insurance since she's only open part time. I guess I should look into that with my insurance then.
11294269 tn?1422402907 I agree with rambler. And totally understand not having insurance. I live in Oregon and since I'm pregnant I can get on the Oregon health plan but it is taking forever!!! I'm almost 10 wks and so far have not been able to get or schedule an ultrasound because its expensive and I need insurance first. If possible can u go to a free woman's health clinic? They either r free or income based....
Avatar f tn Hey are any of you on state health insurance? Do you know if they cover brest pumps?
Avatar f tn I live in Oregon and make more than that for a family of 3. I am on the Oregon health plan. I believe its mandatory since I'm pregnant. I thought there would b a prob too due to how much I make but it wasn't. It did take almost 2 months to get thru the system and actually covered tho. I hope u get some ins soon! I know how frustrating it can b. Good luck!
Avatar n tn If u can find a women's clinic in ur area that would b ideal. They will still take u but u will pay out of pocket. I also have no insurance and have my first apt next week at 8 wks along. I'm going to a free women's clinic.
1191960 tn?1280074080 I live in Oregon and have Providence health insurance. They pay 50% of everything except IVF. I also have Healthcomp-they dont cover infertility but they do cover ultrasounds and office visits. For sure shop around.
Avatar f tn Just get an Oregon ID. Oregon has better healthcare plans than Texas (Oregon was a smart state and expanded their Healthy Oregon medicaid plan). Call healthcare.gov and talk to them about your options -ALL of the plans cover maternity - they have to by law. I had BCBS PPO from IL and live in CA, all my pregnancy stuff was covered. But my job ended, i worked with the CA insurance exchange and got new insurance no problem. Both Eugene and Portland have really fantastic hospitals.
Avatar n tn Can you get on the Oregon insurance plan? My heart goes out to you we just had to refinance our house and we have medical insurance because of all my medical from my cervical issues. I am in Oregon too. Makes phone calls right away there has to be some help for you.
Avatar f tn In Oregon doctors have no problem with lying to you and saying your insurance will not pay and so I won't give you a prescription. I often wonder why no one sues. If you have enough money to sue, then more than likely you have enough to have good insurance. It's the people on Medicaid who are lied to and they can't afford to sue.
Avatar n tn hi, i don't have any dental insurance so I need to pick and choose which tests and procedures at the dentist are really needed. I ask you this because I hope to find unbiased opinion. Last time I skipped the peridontal xray, but got the cavity xray and cleaning...he found 2 tiny cavities that ran me $400 out of my pocket but later a hygenist said maybe that wasn't necessary as the decay could have been reversed... So what do I "really" need..
1027870 tn?1252056250 yes you too can have a dental plan that most reputable dentists will not accept! i would love to go to a dental mill full of new, inexperienced dentists.
Avatar f tn That's probably going to be difficult since the Oregon Board of Dentistry has issued the following proclamation: "It has been the Boards advise to dentists that if they have patients who refuse to take x-rays contrary to the schedule that the Dentists has established and that schedule is not adverse to what other similar dentists would do or what is taught in the educational programs, then they should dismiss that patient from practice.
315996 tn?1429054229 I live in Oregon and have cirrhosis and three separate doctors refused to write scripts for me by saying my insurance would not pay. A NP finally helped me and insurance did pay. I have Medicare with Oregon Health Plan as secondary. The Health Authority here does not want anyone on OHP/Medicaid to treat even if they do have cirrhosis. The mystery for me is why the doctors go along with it.
Avatar f tn I meant to add that Oregon has a program, the Oregon Health Plan, for the working poor who just cannot afford insurance but with the decline in the economy those who apply for it are put into a lottery. Twice a year some lucky people are chosen and get coverage. The others suffer on and hope their number comes up in the next lottery drawing. What a cruel joke!!
Avatar n tn I have dental insurance but as we all know the coverage has been less and less over the past few years so I looked into dental discount programs. Did you know that some dental providers will accept both insurance and a dental discount plan togeather? It took me about 5 phone calls but I know it was worth it. On my first visit I had 3-cavitys filled. The cost after my insurance was $144. factor in the dental discount plan and my out of pocket cost was only $14!!! Check it out at http://www.
Avatar n tn My husband (40 y/o,healthy)and I (40 y/o, healthy) are looking to get our health insurance coverage from next present. Right now we are on cobra GHI( extension from my previous work place) but they are asking me to change to EMPIRE PPO or EPO since they will not have GHI. I did not have dental and vision coverage previously but even if I want it they are saying they cannot add it. They are also asking for a one year committment.
Avatar n tn I am disabled on Original Medicare, have no intent to buy private insurance... I am wondering, is it possible for an individual to get real, stand alone dental insurance? Everything I've looked at caps yearly benefits at $1,000 or so which is completely insulting considering the premiums are close to half of that. Where can you buy dental insurance that gives you "REAL" coverage?
694916 tn?1227728483 Ok, I pretty much did a self diagnosis with Hep C by looking at my bloodwork 2 yrs. ago, so I was re tested and the asl? was normal but hep c was pos+. Was supposed to get a call from a "caseworker" that never happened. So I went again... NO Insurance, to a free clinic, basically they said dont drink and get tested again in a year? now i have what seems like symptons, 43yrs old, of course Im tired all the time isnt everyone that works an 8 hr. day...
Avatar f tn Ok mommys that have medicaid . Will I get denied if I already have dental insurance but not health insurance?
Avatar m tn Hello, I can't remember the last time I was at the dentist but at the time the dentist said I had no cavities. Now I'm 21 and I have a cavity in on of my top molars. I don't know what to do, I don't have dental insurance and I really don't have the money to get it fixed. I don't want to wait any longer and have it get any worse but I don't have the extra arm and a leg the dentists charge.
Avatar f tn Hey Sarah I too am a college student looking for health insurance, I was curios to know what you chose and what worked for you. Also did you add dental to your health insurance, I cant find many quotes with both to know how much together they would cost.
Avatar m tn I am so far a healthy 43 year old/m in pa. I am trying to decide which health insurance plan will be good for my situation and I am looking for some opinions here. This Month my group plan ends and I can take cobra but there is no financial benefit to taking my same PPO plan which gives me to price break for being unemployed. So I am trying to look at this at a meaningful way. Since my PPO was $475/m plue $29 dental I just cant be paying that on my own now.
Avatar n tn I think it is something to do with chiari malformation or a similar problem. Is there any place in Oregon he could get help? We have no insurance and limited resources.
Avatar n tn I am just getting my own dental insurance next month, so I believe I would have to wait a year to see a periodontist with this particular insurance. If you have any suggestions on how to keep my gums as healthy as possible, so that I can avoid more problems, please let me know. Thanks so much.
