I do know someone that got medicaid to pay for her GBS. She was a large woman - over 400# and dealing with a lot of health problems including sleep apnea and out of control diabetes. I remember she told me that she was going to have to pay the first $1200 of the surgery and she was very discouraged because her family is very poor and she didn't have the money. Her drs office called her one day and told her they were waiving her portion of the bill! This was in Ohio.
I don't know how you go about it but I know it is possible. |
