NubianNewYorkers - WHAT TO DO IF YOUR MEDICAID GETS CUT - ( 4 Important Things To Do)

 NubianNewYorkers,

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to share some helpful steps in case anyone’s Medicaid or healthcare coverage gets cut (or ends by mistake). I know this can be stressful, but you’re not alone-we can get through this together!

Here’s what you can do if your Medicaid stops:

1. Call Your State Medicaid Office
- Reach out to the Medicaid office in your state as soon as you can.
- They can tell you why your coverage ended and what you need to do next.
- If you got a letter about your coverage ending, it should have instructions on how to appeal or fix things.

2. Appeal If You Think It’s a Mistake
- If you believe your coverage ended by mistake, you have the right to appeal.
- Usually, you have about 90 days from when you got the letter to ask for an appeal. The Medicaid office can help you with this.

3. Try to Get Your Coverage Back
- If your coverage ended less than 90 days ago, you might be able to get it back by turning in the right forms.
- If it’s been more than 90 days, you’ll probably need to apply again. The Medicaid office will tell you how to do this.

4. Look at Other Health Insurance Options
- If you can’t get Medicaid back, check if you can get health insurance through your job.
- You can also look at the Health Insurance Marketplace for other plans. Sometimes, you can get help paying for these plans.

Remember:
- Keep all letters and paperwork you get about your coverage.
- Don’t be afraid to ask questions. The people at the Medicaid office are there to help you.
- If you need help with paperwork or phone calls, let me or another family member know-we’re here for each other!

Stay strong, and don’t give up.

With love and care,
E-MAN

Prez Obama Signs Healthcare Overhaul Into Law!

OBAMA WINS ON HEALTHCARE FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!

Healthcare fight was Obama's proving ground

The president chose a goal and held to it steadfastly. Now he must build on that momentum.


Rarely does a president bet everything on a single card, but Barack Obama did it on healthcare. Almost from the beginning, the White House was guided by one priority: Nothing must get in the way of healthcare. Everything else would have to wait.




Sunday night, the president who was criticized for winning a Nobel Prize without much of a record finally won a signature achievement -- victory on the kind of massive healthcare overhaul that Democrats had sought and failed to achieve for nearly half a century.


In the months ahead, Obama will face the question of whether his healthcare victory is a high-water mark for a now-exhausted administration, or instead becomes the leaping-off point for victories on other big issues, such as energy, immigration and financial regulation.


But what became clear in the healthcare debate is that Obama is a president with a combative stubbornness, one that was not often visible in his cool, above-the-fray public demeanor. And he has demonstrated that a president who picks a goal, adopts a battle plan and sticks with it, come what may, is not easy to knock out.


In the 14 months of the healthcare fight, Obama saw his popularity plunge 20 percentage points. Voters, whipsawed by high unemployment, lost savings and the other ravages of a devastating recession, boiled over in anger at a president seeming obsessed with his own priorities.


From the beginning, GOP strategists saw the healthcare debate as a chance to cripple Obama's presidency. Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) cast the stakes in military terms, predicting that a defeat would be Obama's "Waterloo."


In perhaps the White House's darkest hour, Obama suffered a stinging rebuke -- and lost the Democrats' filibuster-proof Senate majority -- when Massachusetts spurned a last-minute presidential appeal and gave the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy's seat to a Republican in a special election dominated by healthcare.


Yet if Obama wavered, it was only briefly. Even some Democrats counseled him to drop the attempt at massive change and settle for smaller healthcare goals. Although he toyed with the idea at least once, in the end he held fast.


And while he was criticized even within his own party for delegating to Congress the early shaping of the healthcare bill, Obama mobilized in the weeks after Republican Scott Brown won the special election in Massachusetts.


From that day, it was clear that the endgame for Obama would come in the House of Representatives. He fought with a combination of tactics that played to his strength -- campaigning -- but also required a skill that was less tested -- negotiating.


On both fronts, he showed a level of pragmatism that frustrated some of his most liberal and idealistic supporters -- a willingness to trade a perfect bill for a somewhat less ambitious one that could pass.


Exploiting the bully pulpit, he traveled to places like St. Charles, Mo., and Cleveland, and exhorted rank-and-file supporters with the rhetoric he honed during his 2008 campaign. He invited both Democrats and Republicans to a televised healthcare "summit" -- notable not for any breakthrough accomplishment but for underscoring just how far apart the Democrats and Republicans were on the issue.


As late as Saturday, he traveled to Capitol Hill to lead a rally of House Democrats.


In between such events, he and his aides tirelessly lobbied fence-sitting members of the House.


Obama bluntly told skeptical members that for his presidency to be strong, he needed them to pass the bill.
