You make too much for Medicare. If your employer has a plan I’d try to get on that. Even if you have to pay it yourself.

Are you independent or work for a company? If company, they should provide medical insurance.

I want to add that getting kicked off of Medicare is a qualifying even. Your HR person can help you enroll out of season.

Do you need an intern of any kind?

I’m trying to find an online technical writing for software development internship. Do you have any advice?

Oh, I see the confusion. I got this job about two years ago, right after finishing my master’s degree. At that time, I couldn’t afford health insurance, so I was on Medicaid. I had also been on Medicaid throughout high school, so it was easier to extend my coverage. Now, my coverage is ending soon, and with Trump’s new bill, it looks like I’m going to have to switch to premium health insurance — which is going to make everything a lot more difficult.

Talk to your HR person. This is a qualifying event, so you can enrol with your company out of season.
