“I am barely scraping by already and now I don’t have health insurance again.”
I am barely scraping by already and now I don’t have health insurance again. After being cut from SNAP last year due to the Big Beautiful Bill for Billionaires, I finally successfully reapplied this past week. Only to be notified tonight that I no longer qualify for Medicaid in addition to not qualifying for SNAP.
I am on several meds, for blood pressure, diabetes, mental health, not to mention HRT. What am I supposed to do now when I barely make $1000 per month and have bills to pay and food to put in the table, laundry costs money, etc etc.
Well, it turns out it was an administrative error when documenting my income. They had me making 7x what I bring home in a month. Now, my benefits and food stamps have been reinstated! The fact remains that if I had not seen the error, and reported it to them I would have been SOL!
