How hard is it to get on Medicaid or other ACA programs in suburbs of Atlanta?

I ran across one post that detailed a huge run around and implied that the people working in the offices dealing with applications were corrupt.

I'd like to hear from those who have gone through the process and what their experiences were.

For any welfare haters out there, please note I come from an middle class family with several degrees but health problems keep me in poverty.

It depends how poor you are. You have to be really poor here. Georgia hates poor people so they refused to expand Medicaid to the new federally allowed level.

Wow, super helpful people here. I've never applied for Medicaid, but I do know you can go to healthcare.gov, create an account, and if you qualify for Medicaid they'll send your information to the state.

Thanks for the link. I am older now so not working. One reason I don't work is that there are too many idiots in the workplace (and online too).
