HI Pat,
I'll pray about this.
I was offered meddacare when I started receiving money based on what my 
father had put in when he had his own business.  I was advised by a relative 
in the insurance business to go ahead and take it for the very reason you 
described.  I thank God daily that I have it.

I will pray that all works out for you.
