Electric bills on Medicaid

[Admin - Jon McNamara]

Hi Manuel and others,
Since multiple states and areas are covered in this post (NM, MI, etc.) try this for electric bill help. Since you are on Medicaid, your income must be low enough. But use this link for information on programs to help pay electric and select your state from it. https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/htm ... bills.html

My name is Manuel. I live in Bloomfield NM, San Juan County and I am on Medicaid. I am a single Father finding myself behind on electric bills the last two months due to an emergency health issue that Medicaid did not cover that made me miss work for a good three weeks.
I have a disconnection notice for my electricity past due balance of 206.00 & also for my water bill past due balance of 220.00. I'm seeking help if available. I can send you my account numbers and Medicaid info if need be. The electric contact information or any more information from me such as birth date, social, security my address and phone number if you need it.

I am a single dad with 2 boys at home. I can't find a job that I qualify for, so we are on Medicaid. I drive truck and don't have endorsements on my CDL for hazmat or doubles. Jobs I qualify for without them are beyond my physical abilities.
I've tried 2 jobs. Worked one for 4 days and couldn't handle it and the other I only lasted a day. And my back still hurts. My electric bill is closing in on $600 and my rent is behind 2 months as of today, April 4, 2017. I did get on food assistance but need to find work to pay my electricity.

I am looking for help in paying my electric bill every month. I am on Medicare and Medicaid. I moved from Michigan after my marriage of 30 years and being together for 34 years. I had to leave Michigan to try and restart my life over and be around my family. I am on disability thru Medicare and get help with food and medical only thru Medicaid.
I finally found an apartment but it’s all electric where I am living at. My electric is paid in full right now but it doesn't leave me much money to get thru the month to buy essentials I need and to do my laundry here or put gas in my car. I just recently underwent low back major surgery using Medicaid and still have a nurse and physical therapist that comes in three days out of the week. If you could give me the help I am looking for or direct me to the proper place to get this help for my electric I would be very grateful. Thank you again for your time.
