Dear John,
At 72, Annchi had several chronic health conditions—and no health insurance. She lived alone in a senior apartment after her children moved to another state.
| To keep up with her rent and other daily expenses, Annchi worked part-time, earning about $500 a month. Her employer did not cover health insurance. |
Annchi’s landlord connected her with the Korean Community Service Center of Greater Washington in Virginia, an NCOA Benefits Enrollment Center.
Staff used our BenefitsCheckUp® website and found Annchi qualified for $150 per month in food benefits, as well as both Medicare and Medicaid to cover her medical costs.
Now, she can care for herself.
