I need to get health care through the VA. Mainly I need prescriptions filled throught them. I am in a big transistion phase. I lost my job (something about not being able to fulfill my job duties) last year. That meant I lost my insurance.
This has been a huge transition for me. I had a really really good job and really good insurance. So I have been slow to face up and deal with reality.
I definitively diagnoised with MS in November 2010 by a neuro. I was diagnoised by 2 different G.P.s in July 2009.
I know I need my dd214 to get benefits. I filled out an application for benefits online, they requested a copy so I have already made copies and put those in the mail to the VA in Louisville. Now what? Can I just go to the VA and ask for healthcare or at least prescription coverage?
I will run out of Copaxone at the end of this week. I applied for financial assistance but havent received it yet. I have paid for other prescriptions out of my pocket and I will pay the neurologist out of pocket next week.
My neurologist is on the list for fee basis. Will I be able to continue receive care from him?
Any advice will be appreciated.
