This is the most ridiculous thing i have ever heard of,2009 we are eligible,2010 we are not.We have the same policy.Just because we only have one child that is medicaid elegible,this one child has CYSTIC FIBROSIS and if you would take the time to look at some of his medications you would see the cost,some of his meds can run between 3000 to 6000 dollars a month!All of which go through my insurance first,and the Dr. visits and hospitals stays which all goes through my insurance first.
What happens if i cant pay my insurance premiums,medicaid would have to pay all of this!The smart thing to do would be to make sure i paid my premiums every month.It sounds to me your just counting on people not to drop there insurance,and that is a sorry way to save Va. money!
I have a wife that cannot work anymore because of the care that this child needs and 2 other children living in this household,I ask you to please reconsider this decision,when you have a special child every little bit counts.
