Quoted from hailrazer:But I do need help. $5000 deductibles and no income for 3-6 months. I just can't handle that by myself.

Congrats on hitting your $5,000 goal. Wishing you a speedy and full recovery.
If I was the OP, I would immediately inquire about the church's liability insurance, and potentially retain a lawyer. Whether they have insurance or not - the OP needs to ask. His situation is exactly why non-profit organizations carry liability insurance.

Quoted from JodyG:My girlfriend is basically uninsurable...she works in healthcare and her profession often does not offer employer based health insurance plans in my state since it is not required for businesses under 25 employees. Due to her past injury, a basic plan on the exchange is upwards of $1000/month, and off the exchange isn't even offered plans. That isnt in her budget whatsoever. Short term plans are not even available to people in her age bracket in my state. Ill gladly play more tax if it means people like her dont have to consider bankruptcy and losing homes when needing necessary medical care. I realize its easy to say you think the insurance system is great when your employer covers 80% or more of your premium, but that isnt the case for many Americans.
Out of curiosity, instead of asking to be taxed more by the government, why not help her pay the monthly cost of insurance, or encourage her to find a new job with a health plan that will benefit her?
Quoted from JodyG:What makes you think we are not working on that now
Because I don't know you and you didn't mention it; hence why I asked the question.
Quoted from JodyG:Must be nice to be able to paint the world with a single brush while sitting in your ivory tower.
You're right. I'm incredibly naive, have no problems of my own, and think everything is easy from this "ivory tower" I live in.
