Well, it just keeps getting better and better. I just got off the phone with medicaid AFTER A 2 HOUR 45 MINUTE HOLD(!!!!!)


I indeed have no coverage. The income number they have for me would calculate out to be double my actual income. I have to send them paystubs, after which it could take another 45 days for them to make a determination. Here's a potential kicker... they go month by month. Soooo, the wage bump that work gives us for a short time during the busy season could actually put me over(??), when considered monthly. I don't know. But in the meanwhile, there is nothing I can do. And if/when they reject me again, I will have to start all over again. From scratch. It takes 2-3 months to get in where I've had my mental health care. So I could easily be looking at having no insurance and no care for months and months.


I'm in shock right now, but it won't be long till I go straight up desperate despair. These sorts of situations never fail to follow that trajectory.


I started crying getting off the train. I'm trying to make it in today (I was sick this morning which was the only reason I could stay on hold for such a ridiculous length of time).


FML

Seriously. F.M.L.
