i was to see my doctor last week and the lady who handles the billing for them told me this:
they weren't going to fill out the paperwork! she said they have tried to work with other state programs in the past and it is too much of a hassel to get them to pay the bills. she said she has to call them many times to request payment for the bill.
my last option would be to tell my doctor the details of the situation. that insurance isn't covering my visits and my parents don't want to pay anymore. my doc already knows i don't have it in me to go through the "find a new doctor" process. i don't like making anyone feel guilty, but maybe this is something i have to do to "protect" my life...
and on top of all of this, my great aunt is in the hospital and took a big turn for the worse last night. which means she probably won't make it through the week. my grandma who is 90, would be her sister, have been living in the same assisted living facility for the last year now. they would talk and see each other multiple times a day. if my grandma's sister dies now, i have no idea how it will affect her. but i do know if i lose the two of them in the same year, it would be an incredible blow to an already struggling me...
