Guest guest Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 EK days won't happen for me. One, it way too hard to get to and two we go to Hayward Wisconsin for a week during EK days.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 I do know that EVERY hospital has to write so much off each year. So it doesnt matter what kind of hospital they are everyone is required to write a certain amount off. Most you can apply for a grant and then that covers your hospital bill, but then there will probably be a doctor bill on top of that.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Lots of doctors write off a lot too. Privately owned hospitals generally write off a relatively small percentage. Public hospitals, a much larger percentage. However, each area has different programs available. Here, for instance, if you get set up as a patient in the assistance programs of either Parkland (Dallas) or JPS (Fort Worth) then that will cover doctors and hospital. And, the medical assistance program income requirements are not as difficult to meet as is medicaid's requirements. For instance, I have a friend, reached the age she was no longer covered under her parents policy, was still in college, took a job where no insurance initially offered. She was eligible for one of those programs. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Oh No, Are you in contact by phone?
