14. Forgot to mention....please check w/the hospital social worker.
You mention that your husband was recently hospitalized. Call the hospital business office and ask to speak with the hospital social worker.
The hospital social worker should be able to give you information that you might specifically be eligible for.
Your hospital district (that you pay for w/property taxes) may also have it's own "medically needy" plan, mine does.
It's not easy, but this is what you pay taxes for.

Also, ask about disease-specific advocacy organizations, i.e., programs to help diabetics. My son receives great help from the TX Kidney Fund for his kidney meds.

Don't get discouraged or give up.

Best wishes to you & keep us posted.
