Health care thoughts from someone stuck in the system!

The title actually fits the post this time!

I have been trying to prepare for my appeal, unfortunately, they don’t really give you any help on this. I still have not received their “evidence”, they supposedly were going to send me. I am beginning to think that was just something to distract me.

There is so much wrong with this system it is unbelievable, and the government wants me to trust them with my health care as well? My caseworker refuses to return my calls or even answer her phone. Whenever you talk to someone there they talk down to you like you are a piece of something they found on their shoe. I understand that their job is stressful and they are constantly having to deal with people trying to game the system. I am not one of those and do not expect to be treated this way.

You can complain to public officials till you are blue in the face, but since I am only one voter they could care less either. I will be glad to see many of my current elected officials go. If the government can’t even handle the Medicaid or social security system they have now, I shudder to think what they will do to my health care once they have it in their grubby little paws.

Does our current health care system need fixed, yes. Is the government the ones who should do it, heck no. I’ll tell you what, as soon as you can make the postal system turn a profit I will let you handle my health care.

  • I don’t know if this will be true in your case, and I hope not… when PD finally got his SSD, he didn’t receive medical benefits for another year. I was all like, wth, why would you apply for disability benefits if you didn’t need medical coverage???

    Your titles fit… why would you say that? ; )

    Just keep trying with the disability. Anyone I know who’s had it says it took them three tries. I guess they only grant it to those who are persistent enough to try three times…
    I’m keeping ym mouth shut about the healthcare issue. I’m sure you already know my thoughts on it.
