Q: How do I secure Health Insurance for my toddler child who has yet to receive a social security # or birth cert?
- She was a home birth
-I have a notarized affidavit of birth
- I have applied by mail for a social security card over 7 months ago with no response.
- I have gone to the TN hall of records to apply in person but they were unable to help me at the time with out a “well child check up “ letter.
_ I have since taken her to a pediatrician who diagnosed my child with NF1 (Neurofibromatosis ) and she needs further medical attention immediately.
