Eye On Oshkosh - Accessing Healthcare When Disabled, taped 7-21-2022

Navigating the healthcare system and health insurance coverages can be confusing and challenging for the healthiest of people. But imagine having a disability and needing to access healthcare and have all the necessary insurance to cover it. What if your disability requires you to have certain pieces of equipment or specific medicine that isn’t covered by insurance? Or maybe your disability is complicated by other ailments and chronic conditions, but no doctor in your area, or even the state, will treat you because you’re “too complicated?” These are the very things that the two guests on the most recent edition of Eye on Oshkosh deal with day in and day out. Join host Cheryl Hentz as she talks with two Oshkosh women – Melody Nolan and Anna Hirsch – to learn what their diagnoses are and how those very challenges have made finding care and/or coverage very elusive.
