So frustrated and discouraged: Bit of a rant ...

I in recent months more or less unwillingly relocated 3000 miles.
(Whatever was I thinking??)

I have been diligently x 2 months now working on changing over from one state to another my medical healthcare, i.e. Medicare Complete plan and Medicaid (which paid the premium on Medicare Part B).

Effective coverage date was to be April 1st, yesterday. Nada. Nothing.
Same for this new state Medicaid. Both??
They received no application for me, no record, from the Disabilities Services Coordinator.

To add insult to injury, i was told that my now out of state Medicare Complete plan shows me still enrolled, which means $104 auto deduct out of my Social Security each month ... Because I no longer have Medicaid in my former state.

Thus I do have my former Medicare Complete coverage, still ... which does me no good whatsoever in this Godforsaken foul-weather, lousy climate state, there is no coverage here with my balmy Gulf Coast coverage.
Aiyeeeaahhh!

I have an infection for which I should have been treated 2 months ago.
I can't afford to pay to go to an urgent care center. (Which is the suggestion/solution frequently offered here ... by persons who are far from comprehending the realities of living with circumstances of sudden poverty. )

I just want to throw in the towel and go home.
But there's no home to go home to ... or money enough to secure my own place 'back home' to make again my home.

Thanks for listening awhile, y'all.
I am too much alone, with no one to talk with day after day!

I hope you feel better after your rant. It sucks when things don't come together like they are supposed to. I hope you get to feeling better. take care.

PP, I was eating my lunch today thinking about how everything in the US is so much cheaper.
Housing, food, etc are all so much cheaper

You've made me so glad that we have free healthcare

I could not possibly image what all of pdocs were paid for all of these years

Please don't thinking that I am bragging, I am just realizing how lucky I am to have it

Indeed you Canadians are fortunate in your healthcare system up there, Standup.
It keeps it simple as well. National Healthcare, there where you are, where you go.

Whereas here, the same healthcare insurance I've had for 9 years, served me flawlessly.
Ridiculous that we can't always take our medical insurance with us, in a relocation.

I think assistance is the hardest thing to move when a person needs to move.
