psych_minded asked:


My boyfriend neeeeds to quit smoking, he smokes like more than a pack a day! But! He doesnt have health insurance, and i have great health insurance through my job. Are there any potential dangers to getting him a prescription for chantix on my health insurance ? (i socially smoke so it wouldnt be a huge stretch at the docs office) Could it increase my insurance costs to admit that i am a “smoker” to insurers?

My sister is in a nursing home. I have been paying her COBRA since
December. The nursing home called and “warned” us to find a medicaid facility because her health insurance will probably drop her.
Why?

Is it difficult to get onto a group health insurance plan after being on medicaid?

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009
roses25 asked:


Is it difficult to get onto a group health insurance plan after being on medicaid for a year? I qualify for medicaid. Once I’m done with my education in a year from now I will want to get onto the employers group health insurance plan. Does being on medicaid in the past affect your ability to get onto an employer’s group health in the future?
