In the past year, Mrs. Estrada had a total of 8 emergency room visits by the time she met the Latino Leadership Council. Mrs. Estrada had struggled with severe anemia, repeatedly needing blood transfusions. Her only solution was an urgent surgery with a specialist. However, this became extremely difficult to schedule since she did not have insurance and to her knowledge, she was outside of the Medi-Cal eligibility window. Her condition made it difficult to continue working and perform daily activities, this caused much stress on her and her family.
With the help of her Promotor Bryan, she was able to get approved for Medi-Cal benefits, established with a primary care doctor, and scheduled her urgent surgery with a specialist. Mrs. Estrada is feeling back to her energetic self and excited to continue supporting her son who is studying to become a doctor!
"Many thanks to the Latino Leadership Council for all your support and for helping me navigate the healthcare System. “
