Thanks I would really appreciate that. I
need to be prepared, my appointment is in
about an hour. I am tired of being so
passive and getting run over by people in
the end. Im gonna stand up for my child
today!

i am about to apply for
medicaid. I have my appointment in a
couple of days. I am pretty sure that I
can get it because everyone says that it
so easy to get it here in il. My sister
has it and she makes more money than me.
I am prolly gonna be accepted for wic
too.
.There are guidelines for .Medicaid, but
it is relatively easy to get approved here
in il. Although it took over a month for
me to actually get approved &get my
medical card. &.If you are eligble
for .Medicaid, .I think you're
automatically eligible for .W.I.C, because
.I didn't even have to apply for .W.I.C,
my caseworker for .Medicaid just set me up
with a .W.I.C appointment without any
application process or anything.

This brings up an excellent point, ladies!
Always make sure to know the financial
status of your partner .B.E.F.O.R.E you
marry him! You marry his debt, not just
him. Child support lasts a long, long
time and student loans and credit card
debt can be devastating!
If you had the same income a few months
ago, then the same thing would apply now.
Considering nothing has changed between
.September and now financially for you.

I checked the expanded guidelines for
pregnant women and based on what you've
posted, you are technically over income
the maximum for your family size is $1,840
and that's with the new guideline limits.
I also called the number for an
assistance office listed in boulder, I was
told that you do qualify for chp+. It's
a low-cost health insurance program for
uninsured colorado children younger than
18 whose families earn too much to qualify
for medicaid but cannot afford private
insurance. You can qualify for this
insurance as an uninsured pregnant woman.
Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.
You've probably learned all this at
your appointment.
Although gen is probably a bigger help
than me on this. She does stuff like
this for a living, it's just a small part
of my job.
