I can not afford this type of expense out of my SSI DISABILITY. My injury happened April 2, 2012. Is there a program or help for either retroactive Medicare or any coverage to help with the cost's of this injury until my MEDICARE PROGRAM (Part B) begins. I have Part A (hospital)coverage, since 2002. Any advice you can offer will be helpful.
