Hi
I hate our government a lot of the time cause the system is just a chaotic ball of trashy bullshit.
With my disability a lot of things tend to be a pain in the ass, like going through renewal paperwork for SNAP or figuring out why I have a $229.00 bill from the hospital for my son getting a covid test, that Medicaid should cover. I already know that today is going to be a long rough day at this point and I woke up at 7 am just to try to get a hold of DPHHS to discuss the bill that I got. I immediately called them right after waking up cause I know, almost always, that the call is going to have a 1 to 4 hour wait to actually be able to talk over the phone. Also their call back thing is just straight crap, you try to schedule a call day and then they tell you when the next available day is. You choose that for the call back day, then you get told you can choose a time. You try and pick a time, with the call literally telling you that the time you are looking for is already take. So you choose another one… bet you can guess where that is going. Yup the time is already filled. Then when you finally get a time for call back, it usually isn’t the actually time you aimed for. It ends up being a day or two late, at the earliest time in the morning.
That is why I have called the DPHHS so early this. I have already hit the about an hour wait, which I am not shocked, just sick of dealing with this. It’s a tiring ordeal.
Medicare isn’t much easier, picking which co-company connects to it and covers the best. Having to calling both M’s (Medicaid/Medicare) to understand why a medication was not covered like it should be. These things always have me wanting to bang my head into a wall based on how frustrating they can be and the waiting time for both.
I will say that it is surprising how easy it is to get contact with my case worker for Social Security, I swear that it is the easiest government set up for access to. However, the paperwork and documents, discussions as well as assistance is not so easy. If you actually go to the offfice it takes a lot longer than expected to get called back to talk to said case worker, then to get through everything it is usually an 1 to 2 hours to get through it. But still easier than SNAP/HMK/Medicaid.
Our government should make this simpler and well as more available for all USA people. The cost of company health insurance is just ridiculous, and the fact that it takes hours, sometimes days, to actually get contact with someone is just as ridiculous. Just like all prices on medications, seeing doctors these days, or dentist. The cost is just a good way for citizens of the US to die off over time or avoid everything they truly need for themselves to survive cause they can’t afford it.
Also if the GOV actually reads this, I highly doubt they actually do anything to help because corrupt companies are what rules the GOV not the citizens like it should be. Honestly I am really wanting to start a riot with my frustration with out GOV.
I know I am complaining a lot it there is always logical reasoning for it.
Being disabled by cancer, after being a very stronng independent person transferring to a dependent is a good way to make someone frusterated with even some of the smallest things in life.
Much love to you all you read this.
