" Well, I went to Hospital and got treated even without insurance. Then I applied for hospital charity and got most all my bill written off. I did this more than once. Finally applied for Medicaid through DSHS. Heck, once the social worker looked at me, she aprroved me. In fact since then they just interview me over the phone. That's the ole MRSA stigma working. God Bless,Ross "

" Yes they can't refuse to treat you and will not just let the bills keep piling up with MRSA don't wait..They can figure out later how they can get paid..Always if all else fails ask for the hospital social worker...

Like Ross said Might be done by phone because of MRSA but if you get treatment who cares! Blessings be with you. "
