I just moved to the states 4 months ago and am looking for a health care insurance now. My job offers one, but is way too expensive with 60 dollars a week. I am looking for something cheap and effective since I need prescription drugs such as birth control,thyroid gland and kidney medicine. I need a low cost plan for single,27. No dental really needed. Any idea which one would be good to look at for me?I reside in Jax Florida.

I don’t have any health insurance due to loss of my job. Therefore, I cannot afford the fee for my annual appointment with the MD who has treated my hypothyroidism for years. He is a specialist and actually doesn’t even accept insurance. I used to pay his very high fees out of pocket because I could afford to do so and it was worth it. My annual prescription for thyroid medication will run out in one month. Is there any other type of less expensive health care provider that can write/renew the same prescription that I’ve had for several years after I’ve had the annual blood work done?

I recently been diagnosed with Stage 2 Thyroid Cancer. I have been advised to have my Thyroid removed. I was laid off from my job in Oct 2008 and have no insurance or job. What are my chances of getting coverage of the surgery since this now a pre-existing condition (it has been diagnosed as cancer)? I have some money saved up but nowhere close to the cost of the surgery.

Should I just consider Medicaid or move to Canada?

Thanks…
