Medikejd jeste njihovo drzavno osiguranje za najsiromasnije. Drzavno - program je finansiranih iz federalnih (SAD) i para na nivou drzave. Svaka drzava ima razlicite granice za granice siromastva i nisu iste za jednu osobu (singlicu) i za porodicu. Za razlicit broj osoba pravila su drucija, tj taj nivo ispod kog mozes ili ne mozes da ga dobijes.
Znam dobro sta je, pokrili su mi sve troskove porodjaja (65 000 dolara).
A Medi_Cal je Medicaid za drzavu Kalifornija, u svakoj drzavi ima drugo ime ali je u sustini isti progam. U Indijani se zove Hoosier Healhwise.
Ja znam kako da ga dobijete odmah - zatrudnite cim sletite jer na njega imaju automatski pravo sve trudnice (ovo se zezam).

The California Medical Assistance Program (Medi-Cal) is the name of the California Medicaid program serving low-income families, seniors, persons with disabilities, children in foster care, pregnant women, and certain low-income adults.
Medicaid is the United States health program for certain people and families with low incomes and resources. It is a means-tested program that is jointly funded by the state and federal governments, and is managed by the states. People served by Medicaid are U.S. citizens or legal permanent residents, including low-income adults, their children, and people with certain disabilities. Poverty alone does not necessarily qualify someone for Medicaid. Medicaid is the largest source of funding for medical and health-related services for people with limited income in the United States.
