For the love of all things good in this world, I am doing my best not to lose my shit.
For info: I am 24 y.o., live in Tucson Arizona, got laid off a few weeks ago, and am currently 5 months pregnant. My husband makes about $1,150 per biweekly paycheck after taxes. I applied for unemployment and am still waiting for the payments to kick in. I am only applying for medical help for myself (and our child if able?).
Now, to today. I have been calling AHCCCS trying to get help applying for nutrition benefits / medical benefits because my husband’s insurance is so expensive (I was supposed to be the one covering the cost, but was unexpectedly laid off after my department shut down – so we cannot afford to keep it), I’m out of work, and I have no idea how the hell we’re going to get through this.
FOUR* WEEKS now I have been calling every number I can find for AHCCCS, and after forcing you to go through the automated system each time, at the end it says “sorry, we can’t take your call, go online and apply” which I’ve already done THREE TIMES within the last 3 months.
I have called every number I can find, submitted applications on the AHCCCS and Medicare websites, and zilch.
I don’t know what to do anymore, and I wish I could go full blown Karen and sue these assholes for being impossible to contact. I know that makes me sound like the world’s biggest dick, but I have been ripping my hair out trying to get help from literally anyone. I don’t know what to do anymore or where to go.
I received one letter stating my coverage was denied, but that was because I accidentally withdrew the application. When I called medicaid they said it’s still processing (prior to receiving this letter of denial) and I should hear back, but after getting the letter of denial, I’m afraid maybe nothing is processing any longer.
Originally it stated I was eligible for assistance, but on the application I started today, it says I’m not??
Please, can anybody help? I am about to leave this godforsaken shithole of a country. Getting help should not be this difficult.
Please forgive my theatrics, I am just so fucking tired and feel helpless.
