Mercy Care??



Recommended Posts

Well I have Mercy Care right now... and I call them Merciless Care for a reason. They don't cover it, but I'm not sure about AHCCCS. I'm actually voluntarily cutting back my full-time job in this recession to be cut from Mercy care to qualify for AHCCCS in the hopes of getting my healthcare taken care of for prices I can afford :-(

Best of luck!

First off Mercy Care is AHCCCS, and I am so happy that while I work hard and pay my taxes, you are voluntarily making less money to get on welfare. THATS AWESOME!!!!!

You have got to be kidding me. :drool: You just admitted you are cutting yourself back at work so you can get ahcccs when mercy care is a part of ahcccs while the rest of us bust our butts at our jobs... no wonder you can't get the help you need... you are looking under the wrong category... might want to try psychiatric evaluations first.:thumbup:

You have got to be kidding me!!! I would love to be working and getting the money i need to pay my bills! I dont like being on government assistance!!! You are lucky enough to have a full time job and you want to voluntarily cut your hours so you can struggle more just to get health care!!!!!! You are doing it for the wrong reasons!!!! Being on government assistance is not something that you strive for!!!!!! It is something that you work to get off of!! So for you to say something like that it makes you sound like you have your head up your a**!!!!!!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
