Did you get the plan from work? Well then ask this your HR manager. If you are buying on your own, I'd rather suggest\na plan with no elimination or waiting periods, like eHealthPlus.

I suggest to call and make another appointment. That way you can be sure that somebody will make time for you. They will tell you at the call as well if you can complete this validation at normal office hours.

Yes, you can as long as you go to school to further your education; you will be able to collect. You will also be able to apply for financial aid and receive it.\n\nFor you to verify this you can go to  http://www.ssa.gov/  For more detailed information about what you need to know, let me suggest this. Call your SS toll free number and make an appointment. With the appointment you will not have to wait for hours and hours and you will see the best qualified person at the SS Office to answer all your questions. This is what you should do as you will find out CURRENT SS laws pertaining to this.\n\nThe phone number is in your phone book or at the site above.\n\nHere is some further information.\n\n\n\nSSR 68-69: SECTION 202(d)(7)(B). -- CHILD'S INSURANCE BENEFITS -- DURATION OF PERIOD OF DEEMED FULL-TIME SCHOOL ATTENDANCE\n\n20 CFR 404.320(c)(3)\n\nSSR 68-69\n\n    The child-beneficiary, as a full-time student, was in full-time attendance at X University from January through June 1966. In the following month she enrolled for a summer course at Y University but only on a part- time basis. She intended to resume full-time attendance in October and maintained this intent during each of the months July through October 1966. However, in October she enrolled for courses on less than a full-time basis and continued her part-time attendance through December 1966. Held. (1) the child is deemed to have been a "full-time student" under section 202(d)(7)(B) of the Social Security Act and regulations thereunder, for the 4-month period July through October, based on her prior full-time attendance and her continuous intent to resume full- time attendance within or immediately after such 4- month period, and accordingly is entitled to benefits for those months; and (2) since she was not in full- time attendance during November and December, she is not entitled to benefits for those months.\n\nC, age 20, the daughter of a deceased insured worker, entitled to benefits as a student, attended X University as a full-time student from January 1966 to June 1966. In the following month she enrolled in Y University for a summer course, carrying a total of ten and a half credit hours. Y University requires that a student carry twelve credit hours in a quarter in order to be considered a full-time student. However, she fully intended to resume full-time attendance in October 1966 and maintained this intent during each of the months July through October 1966. Commencing October 1966, she again enrolled at Y University but carried only eleven credit hours. Beginning with the January 1967 quarter, she carried sixteen credit hours, a full-time academic load.\n\nSection 202(d)(1) of the Social Security Act provides, as pertinent here, for the payment of child's insurance benefits to a child of a deceased insured individual if such child is over the age of 18, is a full-time student and has not attained the age of 22.\n\nThe term "full-time student" is defined in section 202(d)(7)(A) of the Social Security Act, in pertinent part, as:\n\n    * * * an individual who is in full-time attendance as a student at an educational institution, as determined by the Secretary (in accordance with regulations prescribed by him) in the light of the standards and practices of the institutions involved. * * *.\n\nIn the case of a college student the term "full-time attendance" means a student at an educational institution who is enrolled in a noncorrespondence course and is carrying a subject load which is considered full-time for day students under the institution's standards and practices. In addition, the course of study must be of not less than 13 school weeks' duration. (Section 404.320(c)(2) of the Social Security Administration Regulations No. 4 (20 CFR 404.320(c)(2)).)\n\nSection 202(d)(1)(F) of the Act provides, in pertinent part, that entitlement as a student to child's insurance benefits ends with the month preceding t

You're kidding, right? You mean to tell us that you don't have your SS number memorized?\nOK, go to the nearest SS office, identify yourself and ask for your number.

SSI and Social Security Disability (SSD) are two different things.  SSI is different from State to State.  Some states automatically give you Medicaid when you apply for SSI, some states don't.  Who turned you down for medical insurance?  Why did they turn you down? Did you apply for Medicaid or your states version of medicaid? \n\nIf you have SSD, you will get medicare after you have been on SSD for 24 months.  The 24 months starts from the month of your application, not from the date they approved you on.  Medicare part D does pay for prescription medicines, but you can't get Medicare part D unless you have Medicare.  You can't get Medicare unless you have been on SSD for 24 months OR you are 65.\n\nIt sounds like you need to find out why they turned you down for medical coverage, and then address those issues.  The Medicaid office in my state will deny people for the most trivial of reasons.  If you are on SSI you have prooven that you have a VERY limited income and resources, so you obviously can't afford to buy a plan and you can't afford to pay the medical bills. Get more detail on your denial and fight it.  Call a lawyer if you need to, many areas have low cost or no cost lawyers to help people with this kind of thing.

No problem just go to your nearest health department and they should ask you some questions to see if you're eligible but remember the sooner the better so if you haven't taken it in at least 3 days it basically useless. \nGood luck!!!

If you don't have work credits for 10 years-it is points off. \n What were the reasons of your denial from SSD.\n Ask a lawyer--Legal Aid (one in every county-free or small fee) .\n If you only have one income-there might be help-not always.\n  I would do that ASAP.\n Sorry-unless you qualify for Medicaid -your insurances is gone. And if your  badly disable--no one will insurance without a very high cost policy. \n Not knowing all the details-it is hard how to help you.\n Email me if you want. I did help with health benefits for a good time of my life.\n It is a shame that many are in your position--we need National Health. I know it cost everyone. \n Bad news--it is going to be worst for many-the State is running low everywhere. Your husband check will not keep up with cost of living--to many have abused the system. And it isn't an endless pot of gold.\n The Disable will get hit the most-than the elderly-than families.\n The forms for assistant are first based on a point system. The clerk who checks the paper adds the points if it passes it goes on-if not they reject it. First denials can be worked with.\n See a Legal law and Consumers-both could help you.\n An immigrant - or did you mean Illegal? Must wait too collect or be disable after working so many years.  I don't believe any should suffer. But they do get extra points if that is what you mean. The time you stated for them if for them to be edible not collect.

If you're sick right now, go to the nearest public hospital emergency room.  Under federal law, they cannot refuse to treat you merely because you cannot pay.  Yes, you may wait a long time in line, and yes, you may recieve some uncomfortable questions regarding your ability to pay, but until we can fix the damn system, that's the way it is.  Get your problem dealt with first so it does not get any worse, and then worry about the "who's gonna pay" question.\nYour question really has two parts: you also need to know how to get preventive care.  That's where social services come in.  You can ask for a referral to the appropriate people while you're in the emergency room, in fact.  No, they won't make you go see social services before they treat your ilness or your dental problem.  Social services will help you find that doctor and dentist.  It probably won't be fully satisfactory, but dammit, any care is better than none!  And you might just join with those of us - medical personell and laypeople alike - in badgering the hell out of Congress to fix our miserable health care system!!!  Write letters, make phone calls, send e-mails - we gotta get on Congress's case and keep on it!  Yo, this old mick's been in health care for over forty years, but I/we can't fix it by ourselves.

Unfortunately you need to contact the SS office. They should have a form they can send to you.

Applying for Social Security Disability or retirement can be a very drawn-out process. They are probably starting to process your claim. As hard as it seems, be patient and don't let all the waiting and stress of it get you down.

I suggest you inquire in SSS information booth. They surely will assist you.

True.  Or you can also call them at 1 800 829-1954 & go thru the prompts.  Make certain you have your SS#, filing status & exact amount you're due back in dollars, not cents.  If it's been less than 4-6 weeks, they may not give you any info., but it's worth a try.  We filed 4 weeks ago & still no results online or by calling.  We'll just call again next week.

umm....why did you wait? go see a doctor! worry about your health first before worrying about whether you can pay for it or not, you can always get help in that area, but if its something serious and you keep waiting, then it'll be too late!

You need to take your social security information to a social security office or apply for it on line and you will probably be able to get it. It will take a long time. Maybe 3 months, but you can get it.
