The damage to Jim's heart was significant; he would be unable to work again but he had no means of paying for his lengthy hospital stay and treatment or for the medications necessary to keep him alive. West Virginia Health Right helped Jim apply for temporary Medicaid to cover his old hospital bills and medical expenses; but the card expired within a month of when he received it. Health Right stepped in again, providing cardiology services, medications, health education and other support to help the family through a stressful time. Tess said, "Health Right saved my husband's life more than once. The doctors who volunteer at the clinic really want to help others...and they do!"
