Guest guest Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Hello Everyone, I hope everyone is feeling good. I am wondering if anyone has any information about a program which I believe is called Angel Flight? This was a program that would pay for travel and expenses if you needed to see a Dr. in another state. I am in AK and I see a Rheumy in Seattle WA. I am now receiving disabilty benefits and so my income is now limited and their is only one Rheumy in Anchorage AK. I wasn't happy with the care I was receiving so I have been seeing a Rheumy at the University of WA. I go every 6 months. So if anyone knows about the program I am talking about please let me know. I have a few money savings tips for anyone who is receiving disability. Since I am on disability I am trying to find ways to save money. If you have any unpaid student loans you may be able to get a grant to pay them off. I was able to do this my Dr. just needed to sign a form stating I am 100% disabled. This is wondeful I was paying $173 a month and I owed over $19,000. I am so happy about this! I have also been able to get a cheap cell phone through Lifeline. I was paying about $40 a month now I am paying less than $5 a month. Even if you have a contract you may be able to get out of it I was. I have also cut my mediacation costs by 2/3's by using a mail order pharmacy. I am using CVS pharmacy and I don't even have to pay for shipping. Yeah! I hope these tips help someone and if anyone knows of any other programs or ways to cut costs if your on disability please let me know. Thanks, jamie123tech@...
