    #Iowa #UnitedStates question:

    Would love some advice from people better at being poor than I am. Has anyone successfully submitted a #medicaid work requirement attestation? When I did they canceled my plan entirely, spent the next month trying to get it back. Nothing yet.

    I am looking at raking in around $150-$200 big ones for all of October so I know I am way under the income requirement and if anything I should probably be on more services. Dunno what to do

    I submitted my appeal for the bill, I emailed the local health services guy and re-replied to their email about getting my coverage back.

    I'm handling it better than I would have in the past but...ugh. I shouldn't deal with people today, I am going to get high.

    Oh and should I just pay this bill right away or could that possibly affect my ability to appeal?

    ...man this stuff sucks. I'm happy to do it 'right' just actually tell me what to do. God.

    I've been recovering most of this week and today was supposed to be my "go get 'em" day. Got in my office, had a healthy lunch right on time, was ready to stream and work out all sorts of VTuber stuff to be productive.

    It's so easy not to see how much TIME and yes MONEY it costs being poor. Everything is worse and it's on purpose.

    And it doesn't help 'save' money. Me missing this $700 physical could have resulted in even more expensive care later. Once of cure. Ugh.
