My husband and I were on Medicade for many years when he was in school and worked part time. I can not work because I have an auto-immune disease. Now that he is out of school he can not find a job in his field due to the economy. We live on one paycheck making 25 dollars to much for medicaid. They put us on Green Mtn. Care and must pay deductibles, for each script. for each Dr. visit and 20% of blood tests, etc. That 25 dollars is eaten up with 1 doctor visit and 1 script. I take 6 scripts a day and see the doctor every 2 months. That doesn’t include my regular doctor and my husband. We cant pay all these out of pocket bills. We need single payer and we understand we will all have to pay a little more in taxes for this. We cant afford not to. Thank you for your time and God Bless.
