Can you teach me, a dietitian, to take medicaid? They don't teach us this in school. I have no idea how to get started. Would love to help people with type II diabetes.

👏🔥💪🎊❤ You are amazing!! I see the discrimination with Medicare...ins. doesnt pay as much. Dental I have to pay up front, copy the bill then wait to be reimbursed. Acupuncture can only be 12 sessions for lower back . I would rather have acupuncture then go to a medical doctor. I have to pay out of pocket for that. Alot of doctors wont accept medicare patients. Saw a chiropracter for a while...didn't accept Medicare. Thank you for your compassion,empathy, & your heart. ❤

Whatever happened to tge "Melting Pot"? Immigrants should at least learn the language of the country they are moving to, especially if they want that country to pick up the tab for their health & welfare.

Maybe they are learning? Maybe the Somalian woman he’s referring to just arrived less than a year ago? Btw- English is one of the more difficult languages to learn.
