For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.

Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.

Rule 5: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.

Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

About 700,000 adults between ages 26 and 49 will be eligible as of Jan. 1

California will welcome the new year by becoming the first state to offer health insurance for all undocumented immigrants.

Starting Jan. 1, all undocumented immigrants, regardless of age, will qualify for Medi-Cal, California's version of the federal Medicaid program for people with low incomes.

Previously, undocumented immigrants were not qualified to receive comprehensive health insurance but were allowed to receive emergency and pregnancy-related services under Medi-Cal as long as they met eligibility requirements, including income limits and California residency in 2014.

So you get a new doctor every time? Damn, that's fucked up.

Yeah. I was at the doctor a week and a half ago and lucky enough to have my family foot the bill. An old man on oxygen was there the whole time I was arguing with the receptionist/nurse that the insurance company was trying to kill him. By the time he left he was talking seriously suicidal.

Like my PCP is listed as a weird code now, and no one knows what it means. I've gotten two letters with two different places listed as my PCP. Technically, I am being actively treated and should have been exempt from the changes, but no one can tell me anything. I don't need to see a PCP for a couple of months so I figure I'll give it time to sort itself out. They weren't supposed to change anything until January 1st, but like if I was in a more critical state of health than chronic back problems, they are incompetent beyond belief right now.

I hope it's just the transitioning process that's messed up and not a permanent one.
