Needhelppayingbills

Hi, I am trying to find help in assisting me with paying my Medical Bills for in home care. I'm on Medicare part A and they only pay 80% so of course I have to pay 20%. I'm able to pay but it’s not easy. It adds up and then I keep on getting the calls and bills. I pay with what I can for my home care and nursing home. But I am Not going to go Broke and have Nothing to Survive On. I live in Santa Maria CA and unfortunately, I am Not qualified for any assistance from the county because of the amount I receive from Social Security. Plus paying rent. I'm also trying to purchase a vehicle but that's not going to well either. So, if you can assist me with any information or help with Medicare part A, medical or home care bills or anything. I would very much appreciate it. Thank you for your time.

Well we are not sure if a program will help with that Medicare bill. But we have many programs listed. Maybe try one or two and see what you can find out. Here are the Medicare programs and information on our site. Also use a food pantry to supplement the now lack of grocery money that you have.

I am disabled with a $500.00 deductible on my Medicare Advantage Plan. Recently I saw a hand specialist in Raleigh, NC and needed braces on both hands. I now have a bill for $295.67 that I cannot pay in full. I am making payments out of my grocery money. Is there help for this deductible? And if so, where?

Hello
I had to call MetroWest medical center twice last year in April for a health emergency. I do not have insurance or Medicare Part B, just Part A. I am 74. I received a bill after a long time and asked for financial assistance. I filled in all the forms and provided documentation. I only have social security income, and rent my apartment.
They called me in August last year and said it was denied additional compensation from Part A. I said I was unable to pay the bill and they said they would "post it". I thought this meant they would absorb it. Yesterday I received a letter from a collection agency, a year later! I called them and they said they could not help me. I don't know what to do. I do not have any assets or anything of value.
Can you advise me or let me know someone who can. I live in Beaverton, Oregon.
Thank you.
