Expand our health care coverage! 14 visits is not enough for the sick and disabled.
Why is this important?
Medicaid only cover 14 visits per calender year. With people like me that has very low income, can't work or go to school any more because my many disease that came into my life almost 3 years ago. I never expected to have lupus, fibromyalgia, sjogren's syndrome and endometriosis. With all them diseases I have to see more than one doctor and have to receive treatment every month. Now I can't see a my doctors that knows how to treat my conditions. I am sick, in pain and I have no where else to turn since SSI disability has denied my multiple times and I am still waiting 2 1/2 years later. I can't get all my medication due to only five prescriptions a month. I can't continue to live like this. And I know that I am not the only citizen that's sick and can't afford health insurance and has to see more than one doctor to get the right medical treatment. We need change, who else will my kids count on to take care of them if I can't because I can't get the right medical treatments I need.
