Does anyone know any alternative ways I
can pay for my pregnancy?I dont qualify
for medicaid b/c my hub makes too much and
my hub says he cant afford to put me on
his insurace at his job; we wouldnt be
able to pay all of our bills if I were to
be put on. So please can anyone give me
any advice on who I need to talk to?????

I Have Some Advice Posted: 11-09-05 16:57pm
Lie, lie ,lie
i have a similar situation. Medicaid does
not check for employment, not in my case.
I said that I live w/ a relative and list
monthly expenses and told them that I did
not work. Don't mention you were married.
Just say you are a single parent. Always
look poor when going to get any state
money. Because these days health cost too
much to do it alone.

Another thing with medicaid, if you are a
husband and wife and are pregnant...You
are considered a family of 3 not a family
of 2. Anytime you are pregnant that
raises your family size which also raises
your income bracket. Well, at least in
my state that is.

Yes I do believe it varies from state to
state but there are different types of
medicaid. If you are over the bracket tey
have a program where you can pay a copay.
My mom is on medicare but needed
additional ns. She was over the income
limit but they offered er a plan where she
has to pay 50 a mth.

Go to the health deprtment. They don't
charge very much at all for prenatal care.
If you hubby is working, i'm sure he can
atleast afford that. His baby should be
number one anyways (after .God and
yourself). The helath department usually
takes good care of you and your baby. My
son and I both are on medicade and we go
to the helath department...I love it.
God bless and good luck,
teresa
