Ok so a girl I know is pregnant without any insurance. Ouachjta Parish and she makes a bit over $27k. She already has a child and can't get insurance through her work until open enrollment. She claims she applied for Medicaid but was denied due to her income.

Does anyone know any pregnancy counsellors in Monroe? Or have any suggestions? The whole situation is a mess but I'm trying to help her out, she's scared and doesn't know what to do.

Surely there are some coounsellors that can guide her through this.

I do t have pics, sorry OT. But seriously any help is much appreciated.

Edit: correction, income in $31,800

Father's pull out game is not strong.

Too late now, but why didn't she think of this prior to receiving BBC?

I thought all single and pregnant females get state funded insurance.

Something is wrong. Either she screwed up app or makes more than she says. She would be at least on the LaChip programs for kids.

OK this may not be a popular option with her but she needs to put this baby up for adoption. Unmarried, working, already has one baby, only makes $27k, and young enough you refer to her as girl?

Give this baby some kind of chance at a good life and do a closed adoption.

Ooooh, no insurance. Obama's gonna get you. He said everyone should have insurance but what that really means is that if you don't have insurance your arse is gonna PAY. Unless she's illegal of course, then she's cool.

A woman with a child only making $27k? She should qualify for the EITC and Medicaid .

She can enroll as soon as the baby pops out if that helps.

She can get a pretty big Obamacare subsidy at $27k income. Go to healthcare.gov.

She needs to go in he healthcare.gov site and see if she qualifies for a supplement. Guess what she prolly doesn't and she has current insurance.
The kicker is she still has to apply via healthcare.gov then pick a plan. She can't get insurance right now until open enrollment b/c she has a current plan. Tell her to apply on the site. It will let her know on the site if she qualifies for Medicaid, chips etc.

If she is a single mom... Wtf is she having another kid for? Close her frickin legs. Of course she is scared. She should've been scared of getting pregnant and been on birth control. But no... She'd rather have a new car and party.... Tell her to quit fricking people and she wouldnt be in this predicament. She needed to be worried about the child she currently she has.... Now she will be on the govt tit.


That being said.... She makes too much to qualify for Medicaid more than likely, but may qualify for chips. Go on the site, fill out the form. It will tell her what she can or cannot get. She doesn't have any other options. Then she can pick out a plan from an insurance company. Pick something from BCBS and she may qualify for chips. Hope she likes getting fricked by the govt as much as she likes fricking dudes cause it's a coming...

We already pay for her birth control thanks to Obama. Why the hell couldn't she use that? I guess now we will take care of her 2 children.
