I came across this post today on a blog I really like. The blog is written by a psychologist, and the post is quite in-depth. I see quite a few posts on Personal Finance where the poster is in clear need of mental health support, but is struggling to pay for the services they need. I hope this resource can be helpful to those people.
"Everyone knows medical care in the US is expensive even with insurance and prohibitively expensive without it. I have a lot of patients who are uninsured, or who bounce on and off insurance, or who have trouble affording their co-pays. This is a collection of tricks I’ve learned (mostly from them) to help deal with these situations. They are US-based and may not apply to other countries. Within the US, they are a combination of legal and probably-legal; I’ve tried to mark which is which but I am not a lawyer and can’t make promises. None of this is medical advice; use at your own risk."
