mellowtiggerOr shamble... more of a zombie stagger, really.
I mentioned that they were disorganized, right? After a week and a half, plus 3 phone messages left by me (2 to their referral line, 1 to their nurse line), I still don't have a referral to a neurologist as was supposed to happen. *le sigh*
I went to the Anoka county office to see about getting on Minnesota Care, the state plan that works on a sliding fee scale. It'll take a while (month or two or more?) after I submit the paperwork for that to become active. At least I easily qualify for it. Food stamps, on the other hand, I still don't qualify for even though they updated their cutoff dollar value for the year, and I still earn less than a fulltime minimum wage job. *baffled shrug*
I wish that I had access to health care just because I pay my taxes.
