I am trying to get on BCMH so I can drop Medicare. Is anyone familiar with BCMH I know they will cover CF even into adulthood but was wondering if any of you have any personal experience to let me know what to expect. I don't know exactly 'what' they cover.

Should I drop my Medicare (nightmare, pulling my hair out, hate every step of it!). Or should I keep it just to have one more 'net' under me to cover additional expenses.

Does anyone have this coverage? If you do, would you please let me know about it. I have looked things up and met with the medical nurse at the local health department but still need to know the ins & outs of everything.

Any advice would be helpful.
Thanks,
Kelli

My son Austin has BCMH and is on Medicaid. He is 6 years old though. But Don't quote me on this I thought it was until 19 years of age only. But I'm not sure.

Ok, if I've done this right here is the link to BCMH <l=myurl>http://cshcnleaders.ichp.edu/TitleVDirectory/PDF-Files-May-2003/Ohio_2002.pdf</l> Normally they cover kids until age 21, but with CF there is no age limit. We used to have it for my son when he was a baby for a few months, and it was a nice extra coverage. Not sure you would want to drop your Medicare and just go with that though (it doesn't cover everything, just specifically cf related things). Hope that helps a little.<b>OK, so the link doesn't work. Can anyone tell me how to put a link in so you just have to click on it?</b>

After you hit reply, hit the http button (above) and a space will pop up that has http: (or something similar) in it, you then copy/paste the link there, then I believe you hit enter & then there will be another box pop up that says "LINK" and that is where you override the word "LINK" with a description of the link you're sharing.

Now that I'm second guessing my instructions, I may be editing my own response<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif" border="0">
