Janelle,
Most states have was is called a high risk insurance pool. Have you heard of these? (Forgive me if I'm telling you something you already know).
Apparently, AZ has one. I don't know the name of it, but you might qualify.
AZ's high risk pool:
2. Allows Medicare eligibles
3. Gives Medicare eligibles discount when the risk pool is the secondary coverage
4. May only offer Medicare eligibles one of the federally defined (options A through J) “Medigap” plansUnfortunately, the typical monthly premium is:
$445 for one person.I think the income guidelines go up to 400% of the federal poverty level guidelines if you have a "chronic" condition.
