Hi Maxene,
I was just reading back over your first post and saw that you have radiation coming up too. It is really expensive so don't pay it and then go to Medicare. Send all the bills into Medicare first and then you only have to pay what is left. It will still be a fair bit of money, but a bit less than if you pay it first. The other catch with Medicare is that when you pay a bill (even the gap amount), if your claim is going to be more than $500, then you will have to wait the six weeks for them to send a cheque out to you. Hope this makes sense.
Take care.
