I got low premium Blue Shield thru my job. At the time I didn't think about it, but I wonder how it will affect my experience with the mental health clinic. I've been going there for years at this point with all my expenses covered by the state.
Was signing up for insurance a mistake? Will I need to pay for my expensive medications now?
I'll call the clinic on Monday and ask them I guess.
Depending on where you're located, you might not be entitled to stay on the state plan if you have a plan available through work anyways.
The private insurers often have a larger network of providers available and shorter wait times. It was an absolute nightmare trying to get ADHD treatment when I was on medicaid. I wound up giving up and just asking my GP for a prescription, which is apparently the typical way it's done around here.
