For the past several years, my medical care has been provided by the Primary Adult Care (PAC) program in Maryland. The PAC program covered what I needed in terms of seeing my primary care physician and mental health practitioner on a regular basis. My basic office visits were covered, in addition to most of the prescription drugs that I needed.
As in most states, Maryland's public health insurance program is changing dramatically on January 1, 2014. I visited the Maryland Health Connection website to see what kind of coverage I would be eligible for next year, and I was pleasantly surprised to see I would now qualify for Medicaid coverage through the state of Maryland with a zero dollar premium to be paid by me.
If anyone needs free health insurance, it's me....so this was very good news. People are saying a lot of things about Obamacare, but so far, it's okay in my book.
