Default Do you live in Arkansas?

Im new to this site and was wondering if any of you live in Arkansas? What health insurance you carry, do you like it and how is the coverage? I live in CA. but have a sister who lives in N.W. AR. I would love to move closer to her as she is my only family but the insurance I have now can not be used there.

I don't live in Arkansas I'm afraid. I actually live in Australia, but I wanted to welcome you to NeuroTalk just the same.

Hopefully some-one with more knowledge than I have will be along soon to help you out.

I live in Central AR. I love the state. Especially NW Arkansas. I would move to Eureaka Springs if my hubby would go with me.

I'm not sure I could help too much. I do not have insurance, so I'm not sure I have any advice there. Maybe your sister would have some idea.

Welcome to the board.

I grew up in NWA and sadly since my husband walked out on me and the kids am moving back there next week. I always had BCBS but am now uninsured once the divorce goes thru I will be in the same boat! Welcome to the site.

Thank you to everyone! Yes, Im sure some of you know me from that "other" site. My husband is afraid that if we move and change our insurance..it will cost us so much more (yes it would..Ive checked) Not as good coverage, some of my assistance with M.S. and meds. may not be covered or not as much. Right now our heath premium is only $400.00 and my co-pay for Betaseron is only $50.00 a month. Along with numerous other meds that only cost me $10.00-25.00. DH wants to retire so money and health insurance will be a huge consideration.
