Q: I do not have any kind of health insurance to help with arthritis, Where do I go from here.
Financial Assistance for Your Rheumatoid Arthritis Medications is a good article with a lot of helpful information. If you live in the states, there is now high risk insurance available for people with pre-existing conditions such as RA, Diabetes, etc. I have a friend who recently obtained this type of insurance from BCBS. It costs less than 300.00 a month, and she has a lot of medical problems, in addition to RA. These programs are admistered by the indiviudal states, so you would need to google it on the web for whatever state you live in. Also, if you are at the target income, you may qualify for Medicaid. Hope this helps.
Blessings,
V
Also in addition to what V said, contact your local county medical society. My county has a free program if you meet the guidelines. Good luck and best wishes.
