Everyone knows that medicine in the States is very expensive. I recently had a case where I was forced to see a doctor. At that time, I had no money at all, and a visit to the doctor is at least $ 100, plus tests in the laboratory.
So, I met a girl, and it turned out that she was also from Chelyabinsk. She shared the contacts of the clinic, where they can help for free. When filling out the questionnaire, it is important to indicate zero income, then they will accept it for free without insurance. In fact, I got to them, and for free. True, they did not have a narrow specialist on staff, I needed a dermatologist. So I tried to get into the free health insurance program in Massachusetts.
Since I am a former participant in the W&T student program, I still have an SSN (Social security number – a prerequisite for legal work in America, this is a special number that allows the state to keep track of your income. – Note. ed.) What was my surprise when, only due to the fact that back in 2014 I paid taxes on W&T, I was given free insurance that covers 80–90% of the cost of medicines. He also took out dental insurance for $12 a month.
