MarketplaceCommercial Fishing Boat InsuranceThe doctor said the operation would cost about $ 30,000. My mother is a widow, is retired from the heavy road construction after 22 years, she can not work this time because of ill health. (She worked part time with her brothers who are in the area of commercial fishing on Lake Michigan, but work on the boat's age and health is too much, now she did not even income) . Are there options for her to get help for this operation. She's not old enough for Medicare or Medicaid (not sure what it is, sorry). I try to teach you here so that I can find him help. She is in great pain. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated or if we could help. And I do not think it is big enough for social security yet. If she can not work, it should consider applying for disability. The SS on disability are eligible for Medicare, even if they are not older than 65 years. Also ask your mom for advice on how to cope with arthritis of the hip. There are a lot of coping skills and things they can do to make life bearable at least slightly, while it is waiting on surgery. Some hospitals have classes for people with arthritis and she could benefit. In addition, it could benefit from a regime of physical therapist prescribed exercises and use of walking aids such as canes or crutches or even wheelchairs. There are also medicines that can take that may help relieve pain. His doctor can advise you on the subject. I do not live in the United States can not help you with health care, sorry: (But given the surgery the U.S. is too expensive for your mother, is there a way your mom can afford to go abroad to get it done much cheaper ... Egypt, for example. This could be an option, but you have to find a renowned surgeon who has experience in this field. You can ask in the travel section of Egypt to have an idea if this is feasible and the costs and if anyone knows any reputable surgeon. If she can not work, it must apply for disability Social Security. Finally, it will be eligible. Posted on April 5, 2010.
