Hi Everybody,
I am in international student enrolled in a college in DFW area, Texas. Yesterday, I suddenly got rashes all over my body with fever and back pain. So, I had to visit Emergency at UT SOUTHWESTERN for about 4 hours. After lab tests, the doctor diagnosed my condition as Chicken Pox.
Now, I am taking rest for 7 days, but I am very worried about the bills the hospital/doctor/lab will send. They have not spoken a word about the expenses yet, but they will surely send me bills since I did not have health insurance. I was planning to buy insurance but I got this illness before I purchased it.
I heard that there are a few agencies/donors which are always willing to cover such medical expenses. But I do not know how to contact them.
I would be grateful, if you could share ideas and information you have.
Thank you.
Health insurance can be very tricky. Since I live in Mississippi I’m not familiar with the Texas laws and regulations, so I recommend you contact a nearby insurance agent. http://www.goodinternetdeals.com/Health-Insurance.html They will be able to assist you.
