<prompt> Human: Hi, rpersonalfinance. Im 23 Male, I live in Detroit, Michigan. I have 3,000 in savings. And Ill be out of work for 3 months. I do not have health insurance. Is there anything I can do for money via computer? Sunday night I went to the ER with a broken ankle. I owe the hospital 180 for that, I had to get an appointment with an ortho, Wednesday, thats 200. And today I had to get a CT Scan, for surgery in six days, theres another 400.I am not too happy. I forked over 600 plus, I feel like a fool for injuring myself. What can I do? Im trying to apply for Medic-aid or whatever, and I dont really have the patience. I dont even know how much the surgery is, and Im sure Ill have follow up appointments and physical therapy.  <response>: Im trying to apply for Medic-aid or whatever, and I dont really have the patience. Do you want to pay for your medical care with your patience and diligence, or exhaust your savings and owe a debt to the hospital? Its your choice, but personally I would find the patience to apply for Medicaid. If you get stuck, reach out to a social worker at the hospital where you plan to have the surgery. They also want to get paid, and helping you get health coverage is a plus for both of you. In terms of making money via computer, that really depends on your skillset. If you can code, design websites, etc. then yeah, you can probably make some decent money working from home freelance while you recover. If you dont have any desirable skills, you can hit up rbeermoney, but dont expect to earn much. Youll need to look elsewhere like applying for SNAP, TANF and other government benefits, visiting a food bank, etc. to help pay your expenses.
