Medical Coverage

why is it so hard for kids that have special needs to find medical. they say that if your child has special needs they will keep them on Medi-cal when its a bunch of lies my child is suppose to be on medicine but the state decided that he didn't need medical coverage anymore. I can afford medical and my husband isn't full time at his job so no medical there. Now the school refuses to keep him in school cause hes not on his meds. they won't even deal with him. This state is so stupid to cut off a child from Medi-cal when he needs to be on meds, now I have to worry about being arrested for him not attending school.

Medical Coverage

What state are you in? Have you contacted the drug manufacture? They may be able to help with the medication.
