stipulations.

i called my trustee and she said that she'd pay for a trip to go see the apartment that i've been told i'm eligible for if i called and figured out if i could get medical coverage. so i called the ics and they gave me the phone number to call to find out, i called them and the lady said they can't cover me until i have a massachusetts residence address, i told her i lived in my own apartment in minnesota and my trustee told me she wouldn't pay for an airline ticket to go see the apartment until i checked that i'd get medical insurance and how long it'd take to kick in. the lady said, "oh.. well, tell her we need a massachusetts residence address before we'd cover you but as soon as you get a valid massachusetts address." i got off the phone with her and i told amy what they said and i don't think she believes me because she asked me if i could have an ics worker on the other line while talking to them. i said that i didn't have ics until tomorrow but i'd call and ask them. so after i got off the phone with her, i called ics and i asked them if they could call the health agency number they gave me and help me to ask them the questions amy was concerned about like if i got any waivers (similar to minnesota's) and if it was medical assistance or they just assumed i'd be working right away and the insurance would be through the job. the ics worker asked me when i wanted to call and i said we could call tomorrow during my ics time but i just remembered- i'm not sure if they're open on fridays because it feels like i've done this before and they were closed on friday, saturday, and sunday.. hopefully not. i just hope the apartment in massachusetts didn't give it to someone else. i'm not sure how i can make sure of that. maybe i'll email the program manager and let her know where i'm at so she doesn't give the apartment away if she hasn't already.
