Health Insurancd in USA

I have recently been getting worse in my health problems. I suffer mainly from anxiety issues due to phobias and I know that to some this sounds as a cop out but if you have ever had a family member with mental problems then you know what I am talking about. I also lost my left eye completely to an accident involving needle nose pliers. It was at home off the job and all I had was workmans comp. I am not saying I can't work just because of my eye but it does contribute and I have to take pain management classes for this injury. I have been trying to get ssi disability because I can't get the full benefits since I worked so many years as a sub-contractor and they didn't get their money. I have already been denied once and my anxiety problems keep me from being able to perform in public without having panic attacks. I now have a phone appointment with the social security office to re-apply and I made an appointment with an attorney that only does disability claims. My main reason for being upset is that I have been allergic to milk all my life and it caused the enamel to erode off of my teeth at an early age. When I try to get help people just look at me like I am some sort of drug junkie and in fact I am not and have never even had a drug charge. My concern is that we can send out dentists to other countries for free dental care when our own people are suffering with no way of relief and the same with health insurance. I looked into some quotes for Medicaid for one and their deductables were around $5,000 and then only paid about 30 or 40 percent or the medical bills. Then when it came to prescriptions it was just as bad and the monthly premiums for a single person was around $500.00 a month. Before I paid all that I could pay the doctors bills. The saddest part is that all the insurance companies I checked were almost the same. They only want the money and not to help people. Where is our compassion? What if it were your family member being denied medical care. My teeth hurt so badly that I can't bear it sometimes and I need full dentures but no one will help. They won't give me disability when I haven't been able to work for over two years and have doctors reports on my condition. Oh, I finally found a dentist willing to fix my dentures once I was approved for a loan and I hurt so bad I was going to do it until I noticed the interest was 27,9% compounded daily. If anyone knows of any help for me please help.
