I wonder how the healthcare 'reform'
is going top affect medical assistance and those who get psych care through it? How will hcr affect our meds,therapy and such.I know I could not afford to pay for insurance on SSI. And I know I need the help I get.
Anyone know anything about this yet?

1. I'm thankful I get free coverage from the state of Minnesota.
Meds, Psych, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is all paid for by state medical assistance.

3. I was hoping Ladyhawk would finally be able to get some care.
No idea here. But wasn't there a Mental Health Parity Act that passed in 2007 or so? You'd think that would mean something.
