Anyone else

Any other mama’s have trouble getting insurance, me and my son just moved back to Florida in September, and have been trying to get everything settled here, we’ve gotten my son health insurance and a doctors appointment for Tuesday, I don’t currently work so we’re on wic and food stamps until I can get a job at least but it seems like they won’t approve me for anything, the food stamps were in his room, I haven’t gotten one piece of mail in my name I applied for Medicaid for both of us and he got a letter with his card saying he approved for it but I haven’t gotten anything for myself, so I tried to get insurance through marketplace and they denied me and then said I should be eligible for Medicaid which I’m finding so annoying because everything is starting to feel harder here It doesn’t help that I’ve been feeling very under the weather recently, I’ve felt exactly how I did when I was pregnant with my son except I know I’m not because I’m on birth control and I took a pregnancy test back on august 27th

They won't give you Medicaid bc you won't take the father of the child for child support. It says it in the letter they said the same thing to me. For the Marketplace you have to tell them you got denied by Medicaid if they ask but tell them you make $14,000 a year. That's the only way you'll be eligible and be careful when viewing plans. Then call them after a month and tell them you lost your job and they'll reduced that monthly payment.

@Lena that’s crazy that’s how it works with Medicaid, honestly because me and his father are together we’re just long distance rn, and he uses my bank account so all our money is together, and almost 1000 dollars he gave me to get the baby diapers, and clothes, and wipes and anything else our son needs. Excuse me, if I don’t know much about health insurance, I just turned 23 and this is the first time I’ve ever had time figure this out by myself, I’m just hoping I can figure this out soon because everyday I’m feeling worse but thank you so much for telling me this, I had no idea 😭

I know I am originally from NY so I had to learn all this craziness. They won't give me Medicaid and I. Have No income bc I need to take their father to family court & I get $60 in food stamps for 2 teenagers bc I need to take him to family court
