health insurance oregon

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....

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..

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!

Hey are any of you on state health insurance? Do you know if they cover brest pumps?

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!!

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.

I live in Oregon and just applied for the Oregon health plan. They r going to send me some more paperwork to fill out and I hope I qualify but not sure I will because of my income. Either way I need to get insurance especially if something unexpected happens.

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.

I have no health insurance and medicade denied me because my boyfriend makes too much money. He wrote me a letter of support and he suppprts our son and i while im in nursing school fulltime. His insurance coveres him and my son but they dont accept domestic partnership. Dont know what else to do ??

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. Sometimes I feel like a broken record telling my story but I feel strongly that people need to take a stand on this. Actually, someone needs to use the doctors who deny care.

probLly the best thing for you momma!! health insurance stinks for most states!! I got lucky I had medicaid fro. 2012 when I got pregnant e my second son so I still was covered when I got pregnant this time. Ugh obamacare crap!!!! Anyway I hope everything works out and you have a haply healthy baby!!

I have state health care coverage in Portland, Oregon with only One Ortho Surgeon on the plan at OHSU. I have a bicep tear and a superspinatus retraction of 2 inches. My MRI also showed bone spurs on the underside of the clavical and they are bone on bone with my femur head. I am a bodybuilder wanting to do my first competition before I'm 50 (that's less than 2 years away). I am in good physical condition otherwise.

I live in Oregon and I have my work insurance and the states insurance which we call ohp whatever my primary doesn't pay for the secondary picks up everything turns out to be paid for 100%

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+.

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...

I know in Oregon it is called FHIAP. They can pay as much as 90 percent on the pay for insurance and it is private insurance that you get and not state insurance. You just have to do some research in your state.

for individual health policies in the near term, Sandy Praeger, chairwoman of the health insurance and managed care committee for the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, predicted Friday. Most states don't have the legal authority to block or reduce health insurance rate increases, Praeger noted. "When you see stories like (Anthem's), you can almost guarantee there's going to be increased consumer protection activity" in state legislatures, she said.

Like someone else said , the ONLY way to know how your insurance works and what is covered is to call your insurance and ask about your specific policy. I worked for a major health insurance company for years and the biggest mistake you can make is not calling them in advance. I also recommend finding out what options you have for permanent coverage for your baby.

Call your health plan provider. It's different with each state, I believe.

Hi, I just found out I do not have health insurance. We thought it would be until the end of the month but it's already done. I wad still under my moms plan and she was laid off last month. Well I had medical assistance through the state my last pregnancy but they dropped me when she was a month old because of my fiance's income. My daughter still has medical assistance.

My son and daughter may be looking for health insurance after they leave college and are no longer dependents. My daughter has been diagnosed with a bicuspid aortic heart valve. She has a healthy heart and it is working well. With this impact her chances to get health insurance on her own?

I am going to lose my health insurance soon. I was wondering if anyone knows of any government programs I can participate in in order to afford doctors appointments and delivery.
