What to do, wife is 5 months pregnant and has no medical insurance in nevada.?
My wife is 5 months pregnant and no longer has medical insurance because she lost her job, not due to the fact shes pregnant, economy is bad, cutting down on employees. What do you do in a situation like this where medicaid takes 3 months to get. Is there any way to get taken care of in the state of Nevada? if so do you know where? any advice or someone to talk to would be great!!! Also, can a hospital deny you care when you have no health insurance?
Many people without health insurance use the emergency rooms as their primary care because they will not be sent away. Women, infants and children programs called WIC are set up to help in these situations, here is a link to their website http://www.fns.usda.gov/wic/
I would contact them soon and they should help you find medical care. Also you can go to the hospital or ask your doctor to speak with their social worker who can help you through this process. Good luck with the health insurance and the baby
