[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 563063, member: 1967"] I just found out about an option for health care for my difficult child who is 27 and bipolar and struggles with depression. Thanks to the affordable care act, people who are turned down by traditional health insurance companies can apply for health insurance through the government. My daughter's premiums would be $220 a month and I think your son's would be lower since he is younger. We are in the process of applying for health insurance for her just to get a denial letter so we can apply for the government insurance. Here is a link to the program: [url]http://www.healthcare.gov/law/features/choices/pre-existing-condition-insurance-plan/index.html[/url] Once you get him on an insurance plan, you will have more options for treatment. We plan to pay the premiums ourselves since our difficult child can't afford it. After 2014, you can get him covered by the Obamacare insurance exchanges. by the way, welcome to our little corner of the CD board. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
