Child Health

Just found out that this child I know has a cluster of cists on his brain. Took him to the doctor and come to find out, that the hospital is refusing to do anything because of the type of insurance that the mother has. Is their anything that we can do to get this child the medical tention the he needs. They live in S.C. Please help.

Are the parents working because if they aren't they may qualify for free health care..most areas in America have low or no cost clinics , put the area she is in and low cost healthcare into the search engine ..There are some famous hospitals like St Judes may help it depends on how serious it is ..

Try other hospitals. Go to the news, make them do a story on it, they may switch their tune then.
