Medicaid NYS
I started a job last month and it’s paying me more than anticipated because of training/summer hours. When September comes around, my hours will drop. Right now, I’m about to have made roughly$3500 this past month. My employer does not offer health insurance.
I’m fully independent, meaning I pay my own rent, car, electric, food, gas, phone etc and that brings me to spending almost everything I earned.
My year ends in August and going to let them know my income tomorrow. I have a phone appointment with an adjuster because I literally have no idea where to go from here as far as coverage.
How does a 32 year old survive without Medicaid? Genuinely! When I used the generator for coverage (no dependents, I live alone) it’s quoting me $587 a month! What?!
Now I officially understand why people go without health insurance!
Please no negative comments. I sincerely am asking for any advice or first hand experience of this nature.
