Default Slamming my head against a brick wall repeatedly would make more sense.

Stupid Virginia. I swear I need to move.

OK to get approved for Medicaid, I had to fill out ANOTHER SSA Disability audit pack and drop it off with social services. The same audit pack I have filled out so many times while fighting for disability.

Are you ready for this?? SSA says I am indeed disabled and approved the medicaid...
The same SSA that has denied my last 2 applications for disability and the same SSA that is dragging their butts right now with the appeal I filed in May.

The same exact form, the same exact doctors, the same exact symptoms...

How is it possible to be told yes I am disabled and No I am NOT disabled by the same administration using the same information on the same form??

I just don't understand how this works!

It's not just Virginia. They're idiots in Maryland too.

Ditto for New Hampshire and North Carolina, and Rhode Island.

Since Medicaid is Needs Based, they are usually pretty fast to approve it. It can be very confusing trying to understand their thought processes.
