I do not have health insurance. I have thyroid problem.?

Question

I have low income. what do I do ?

Answer 1

+ You could apply for Medicaid! Or PCN

Answer 2

Are you male or female? Do you have children who also do not have insurance? If you are low income you need to apply for Medical, if you do not qualify then you can apply for healty families. I believe you can get insurance with them (healty families) as an adult. If not they should be able to refer you to someone who will help. Go on line and search for a non profit in your area that helps with medical problems (financially). There are many non profits that help with almost everything. If your state or county has the 2-1-1 information and resource line in use just call 2-1-1 and tell them what you are looking for and they will give you all the resources you need.

Answer 3

Contact your local hospital and see if they know of clinic you can go to so that you may get your thyroid meds. Some drug companies will provide your meds for free if you are low income. Your doctor should have info about this. Also, you could check out on the web the company that makes your medication and see if they have any programs available for you. If they do, call your doctor and see if he/she will send them the needed info. Explain your situation and hopefully the doctor will work with you

Answer 4

Hi, just thought I’d share there’s a company out there who’s helped a lot of people who do not have and need affordable health benefits. They cover regular office visits, specialists like orthodontists, any pre-existing conditions like diabetes and pregnancy and even ancillary care and hospital advocacy. It basically includes everything you need help paying for. There's no high premiums, deductibles, co-pays, waiting periods, claims forms or anything like that at all. They can save you up to 80% on your out of pocket expenses for so much less than all the other companies. It could end up saving you a lot of $$ over traditional insurance. They have a medical plan as well as a dental plan that both include vision, prescription and chiropractic benefits as well. They have over 400,000 providers nationwide as well, so it is available almost everywhere. They are a wonderful company and are members of the Better Business Bureau. They were even featured on FOX News just a couple weeks ago. I know several people who have benefits through them, and everything they say about them is nothing but positive. It’s just crazy how much people are shelling out for their healthcare. I then also got benefits through them and love to be able to tell other people about how much money they can save. Try this website and you can check out the specifics and providers in your area. http://www.everyonebenefits.com/40424269/. If your preferred provider isn't on there, he can be added. I hope this helps you and you find what you need. You can email me personally at airforcecontractnegotiator@ yahoo .com (we're military) if you have any questions. Best of luck and happy new year!!

Answer 5

First off, you should apply for medicaid. This will cover your office visits, lab work and medications. If you choose to NOT apply, you can still see a doctor and get a prescription. Walmart fills the generic thyroid medication (levothyroxine not synthroid) for $4 a month. How cheap is that?!! Good luck.

Answer 6

Natural treatment is better way for you. it not expensive.
Making dietary changes is your first line of defense in treating hypothyroidism. Many people with hypothyroidism experience crippling fatigue and brain fog, which prompts reaching for non-nutritional forms of energy like sugar and caffeine


Up the protein. Protein transports thyroid hormone to all your tissues and enjoying it at each meal can help normalize thyroid function. Proteins include nuts and nut butters; quinoa; hormone- and antibiotic-free animal products (organic, grass-fed meats, eggs, and sustainably-farmed fish); and legumes.
Nutrient-up. While nutritional deficiencies may not be the cause of hypothyroidism, not having enough of these micronutrients and minerals can aggravate symptoms: vitamin D, iron, omega-3 fatty acids, selenium, zinc, copper, vitamin A, the B vitamins, and iodine.


My friend suffered for hypothyroid she read a book on the internet which is useful for her disease. you can see the book at: http://adola.net/go/hypothyroidismrevolution/

Good luck!

Answer 7

A few months ago, I was very sick, zero energy, freezing cold, depressed, weight gain, thought I was dying. I read every word of this Hypothyroidism Revolution program and followed all the advice. My life turned around the first week. I started to feel human again. Within weeks my energy came back and I felt like living again.

Answer 8

You need to contact your local department of social services and see if you qualify for medical assistance.

The other option is to look for free clinics in your area. Contact your nearest teaching hospital and ask.

You can call private practitioners and try to negotiate a discount, but they are probably overworked as it is, and may not have the time for charity. (Doctors provide a lot of "charity" with all the non-paying patients that show up anyway)

Answer 9

How do you know you have a thyroid problem?I don't know where you live so I can't say if you have a government which would take care of you.

Answer 10

If you have hypo (under active) thyroid, them all you need is Rx which is dirt cheap. The blood (TSH) test will cost a bit.
