Molly Hansen Arroyo Seco created on Tue December 3, 2013

My name is Molly Hansen. I live in Arroyo Seco, NM. Before I lived to New Mexico I had Keiser Permanente, I lost my job, and actually because I moved here I lost my Keiser. For the past three years I haven’t had health insurance.

I had broken a toe and it wasn’t getting better, so I had to go in and have that looked at. I thought I had Keiser still, and they actually told me to go in and pay for it, and then I found out that they had pulled my insurance. And so I was left with the bill. The bill for the broken toe was $500. The toe is much better now (haha). I came here today because I’m on unemployment, I’m enrolled in the NM Work force program and I was informed of this program for health insurance through that.

I found the presentation very helpful, I hadn’t heard anything otherwise in NM. I’m very grateful that the word is getting out and I’m actually going to share this with my friend that is having trouble applying online.

I have figured out that because I am unemployed, that in all likelihood I’ll be eligible for the Medicaid program, until I find work. I’m hoping to get back into school, I have a lot of non-profit and administrative experience, but I’d like to get a degree and break through the glass ceiling.
