Medicaid and prenatal care emergency?


i applied for medicaid, and checked on my case information every day for the original 30 day waiting period. when i hadn't heard anything on my case, i called and spoke to a representative who told me i would need to provide certain information - proof of pregnancy signed by a doctor or nurse, my ID, and birth certificate before 15 days was up. i then received a letter in the mail stating that i needed to send in these documents in 10 days... i tried calling the worker multiple times to ask about getting an extension on the time allowed, but she never returned my phone calls. i faxed a letter; it was ignored. then i checked my case information online, and it said i was denied.

what can i do? i'm stressing out; i already waited 30 days + 15 to get this far only to be denied and ignored. now i am into my 4th month of pregnancy and haven't yet had any prenatal care; i'm scared and stressed out to the max. what should i do? i can't wait any longer and don't know where to go.

First thing just chill. Everthing will work out. You need to go to the place and talk to someone. They might work with you to get it done faster. But knowing those people they wont and you will have to reapply. No big deal. If there is a county health clinic in your area you can go there. Here there is like a 3 $ charge if that. You could also go to the ER if you think there in an emergency or are having trouble. They have to see you no matter what.
