The wife and I are both in our 40s and we have Medicaid. Wert was quoted for 2 yrs@over 900 a month. We couldn't afford it. Come to find out we was doing it wrong. Every time you call they want your gross income and they tell you you have to pay x amount. Even explaining to them we have lot of write offs. Their reply don't matter we need your gross.
Fast forward I had to go to the hospital had a huge bill we couldn't afford. Hospital had assistance we signed up for they said we was denied based on our gross income.
So we went to H and R block and asked them what was going on and why we couldn't get help. She said it was very simple that the people was not using our schedule c form which was our income after all expenses including our per diem, fuel, repairs and what not.
Called the hospital back and told them they needed to look at schedule c and they informed me it was no charge. I called the market place and asked them why they didn't use my schedule c. They looked over it again and said I need to call Medicaid cause we qualify for it.
People are not afraid to take your money if you are not well informed. We drive a cargo van and I believe we are able to clear 32k after all our write offs since we are a family of 2. So that's a little info for cargo van drivers. Though I'm not sure that works for anyone driving a bigger vehicle.
