JHeron: I have Health First Medicaid. I received help through NYC's LGBTQ health center: Callen-Lorde. They've helped me throughout every step, for over 3 years. I suggest visiting them, getting signed up & then work directly with a case worker to choose the best plan based on your income & situation. For everything to be covered 100%... (like in my case) you need to prove quite a bit... especially that you earn approx $14k a year max which is below poverty line here in NYC. You need to show your taxes from the previous year as well. But having a case worker helps so much. Ultimately I could not have had all my surgeries without the help of my girlfriend & Callen-Lorde.
I've been meaning to post on Trans-Bucket... just been in bed recovering from that recent hospital emergency/catheter mistake. Once I feel better, I'll definitely post. I know you're all waiting.
