I live in Michigan, and we have Childrens Special Health, that covers hospitalizations, factor, and supplies, with no cap.
I'm looking to moving somewhere possibly warmer in the future, and I'm curious about coverage in other states. I'm a very special, and severe case, and want to be sure I'll get the coverage that would keep me healthy.
If you care to share, that would be amazing.
I don't have hep-c but know of some people that does or did. They now have treatment for it.
Hello. I’m living in NYC can not find an oral surgeon that will do work on a hemophiliac. Any help please.
I like Dr. Mahjoubi. She did my wisdom teeth op
I posted an in detail story about what’s happening, but in short. I need multiple surgeries and I am constantly being canceled by the oncologist for numerous reasons (not financial) for some ridiculous reasons such as dates, locations, etc. no referrals or rescheduling, no nothing, just cancels the surgery and surgeons eventually get annoyed and back out leaving me scavenging for other surgeons.

We are considering attending this conference and would like to know if other families found it helpful/ educational. We are a new hemophilia family with a 2 month old (severe A). We are hoping to learn as much as we can before beginning factor treatment with our son.

Well this is a really long story but I am going to make it short. I have Blue Cross Blue Shield of NC they will not cover my Factor for me to have on hand witch is kinda a big deal. Because I am having to miss work to go get my infusion. They are wanting me to pay a stupid amount of money every month to have it at home at witch point I could buy a new Ford F150 every month lol.
