I just called our office here and they told me that they didn't know anything about it going federal and wondered why I would call them. She said why would that make any difference to your child? So, I don't know what's going on but I don't think it's federal. I have never heard of it and I'm always on the phone with them.

What is Medicaid?
Medicaid is a federally-funded, state-run program that provides medical assistance for individuals and families with limited incomes and resources. It pays for your health care costs, including doctor's visits and eye care

You know- I don't know what I was thinking. She gets it from social security and thats federal. So your right. It has to be a federal thing. I'm in a law suit with them right now. I've been to court and I'm waiting on my attorney to call me as to when we can go again. I don't play anymore. You are right though, it would have to be federal just run by the state that you live in. I know that they are changing things up right now here in Texas.

Medicaid is a federally funded program however it is ran by individual state agencies. Who qualifies is based on the state level. For example a single mom working below the poverty level qualifies in North Dakota but not in Mississippi. I know this cause when I was in ND I was covered but now in MS only my kids are covered.

    I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
