Question:
Where can I get a medical care?
I'm 24, live in Tennessee, go to school and work part time. I don't get medical at work cuz I'm part time, and have no way of paying for my doctors bills, and recently I've noticed serious health problems, but it scares me that no body really cares if I just die, unless I have the money.

Most communities have clinics that serve those that are uninsured. They are ran by Nurse practitioners that are trained to treat patients with minor to moderate problems. The clinics are usually overseen by doctors. And usually the clinics are busy and wait times are long. But if you have a problem that you feel really needs attention, going to a clinic would be a good option for you. If your problem is making you sick, an emergency room would be a good place to go for urgent care. Under law, Emergency rooms cannot turn anyone away and will find help find a way to help you find options to either pay or get funded. Check out the hotline numbers for your area hospitals and call them, they can direct you to a clinic or a hospital for help. But don't ignore your symptoms if you are feeling bad.
