Don't they take into consideration your medical bills? Thats the way it is done here: take 1/3 of income minus medical bills. (which can be 'anything' from over the counter pepto bismal, stuff medicare/medicaid does not pay, service dog exspenses--food,toys,vet bills, obedience classes, agility classes, fees for tests such as the Canine Good Citizen, or the TT--a temperament test put on by the American Temperament Test Society (about $20 or there abouts) plus any other medical type supplies such as gauze, tape, blue pads etc. Gotta go homemaker is here!

My payment standard went up and it's half of my income because of the price of the rent. They gave me one year. still no where to move to, but I have to pay so much freaking money. I wish I had more time to fight this. I'm going to, it's just taking me time. I'll keep you updated. Stacy "People who hate you do not win unless you hate them.

I think she said around 50 hours a month, but don't quote me. This is in Missouri. Other than that and my rent going down a little bit-yaaaay!--nothing had really changed. And medicaid does cover all my meds now--except for the .50 -$2.00 co-pay, so a Medicare card does nothing for me. My pharmacy gives me a 15% discount too. I did hear about the increase in medicare payments. I have part A but I guess the payment will go up to that $70 some odd dollars. Will negate any "raise" I might get. Thats all I know!
