Your Mission

You're a single parent and you just had emergency surgery. Now you're staring at a $4,200 hospital bill from a procedure you didn't plan for. Your insurance company, HealthNet, sent paperwork that doesn't match the hospital's numbers. On top of that, three different agencies have called about emergency financial aid — but each one wants different forms and has different deadlines. You have 48 hours to figure out what your insurance actually covers, apply for help, and arrange childcare and rides. You're overwhelmed and don't know where to start.
