Medical costs force couples to divorce

Published

Specializes in Case Management, Home Health, UM.

My sister and BIL have decided to divorce next year....so she can qualify for Medicaid.

It doesn't change how they feel about each other, but they have no other choice. She needs medical care and can't get it if they stay married.

A crying shame.

And, in the words of Joe Hill, "don't mourn, organize!"
