We know how it is! You are usually subject to county or other public health facilities that are broke or billing a governmental agency. These clinics make their money by malingering, by having you come back again and again instead of giving you refills on your prescriptions - taking months to get around to referring you out for what you really need. Each time you show up someone gets billed for their incompetence - the tax payer - while your health is allowed to erode.
And many of the personnel, knowing you are poor - especially if you are "homeless" - figure you must have done something wrong to be where you are and must be stupid - and deserve what they are giving you - which can be THE OLD RUN AROUND...
We want to hear about the clinics you go to begging for health care!
How are you treated?

POPULATION CENSUS OF THE HOMELESS ?! WHY YOU MAY NOT COUNT US !
Some homeless who have cars and are a bit more recently homeless are going to work for the 2010 U.S. Census. But it may be difficult to count most homeless people, since visiting a residence is key to getting a count of the people living inside and census workers are NOT going to risk going to homeless camps.
