I am disabled on Social Security disability and I'm my medical bills became too high this month and I have a supplement that was supposed to start but it did not. The insurance company says next month I only need help with this month's rent and possibly my water. I did get a roommate to try to make sure things would be good until my supplement started however she lost her job. She has been looking and has and driving me to my doctors’ appointments and surgeries that I undergo once a month, and the supplemental coverage does not pay for many of my bills.

I have been on disability for almost 3 years, my husband injured his knee December 31, 2014, and hasn't been able to work, and we are struggling to pay our bills and can't afford the surgery for his knee. We are behind on all of our bills and have bad credit because of all the medical bills that insurance did not pay. We have no one to help us. I am scared we are going to lose our home. Please help us.

I am SSD disabled under 65 (I am 60); my AARP Plan F is now $575/month; I am told by United Healthcare that I cannot downgrade to a lower cost plan; it is not available in Florida and if I drop Plan
F; then I cannot get back on it until age 65.
I am undergoing my third dental reconstruction in that I have an unstable jaw to the tune of $32K; My SSD check is only $1803 per month and have to pay skyrocketing homeowners insurance, flood insurance, car insurance, $6900/year supplemental insurance premiums; food, cable, internet, electric bill, food, repairs to home and every other bill that everyone else has to pay and I am on a fixed $1803/monthly check.
Is there any assistance programs to help pay my dental bill of $32K from 2017 and my supplemental insurance premiums ($6900 per year); please respond to and what are the financial guidelines for such assistance. The zip code I live in is 34450.

There are ways to appeal health insurance claims. They often work for supplemental policies too. Then you bill can be lowered or given reductions. Or maybe the carrier will pay more of the cost. Try the information we have listed.
