I am 61 years old, I was on Tncare in my state of Tn up until 2005. They changed the criteria for acceptance and now your income or medical condition no longer matters/ I have infrahisian heartblock,type 2 diabetis, nerve damage and have such terrible knee and leg pain it's almost unberable: I'm not able to work and my husband
is on Medicare and retired: We live on a fixed income so can't afford Doc's and tests or surgery, what does a person do,just suffer in silence?
thank-you

Dear whatahoot,

A good resource to look for assistance programs is http://www.coverageforall.org/our_services.htm#apps which provides State specific guide that outlines all of your State’s public and private health care choices for individuals and groups in almost every demographic profile, as well as offering a reference list of phone numbers and web sites.

For assistance with Rx medications visit http://www.needymeds.com which is a non-profit with the mission of helping people who cannot afford medicine or healthcare costs. The information at NeedyMeds is available anonymously and free of charge.  

Sincerely,

Amir Mostafaie
