I'm going to chime in on the case worker thing. It seems painfully clear most of you don't know what that actually means in the terms of government aid.
The government subcontracts to local health care workers. Their case worker is just there to evaluate them and send their letter on along to another person some where else. It's often how smaller practices make a living; they get a bunch of people on SSI/SSDI or government backed insurance. Alot of these cases are very routine. Some one who will always need a medication refilled etc etc.
I fully suspect that the case worker is not who saw Mumbles or becky about their mental health diagnosis to begin with. It's probably some one they see for 20-30 minutes and get their medication renewed. All this person does is make sure their medication doesn't have shit side effects like you know, suicidal thoughts, etc. They fill a RX for them, they do a little chit chat, make sure no side effects, off they go.
I don't really see why people are claiming they have a side business. They are selling the ability for new doctors to get into their insurance. I assure you..it won't be making them a dime at those costs. This isn't an unusual practice either.
Also to note; most of these case workers for the government subcontracting tend to be cheap af small practices that would otherwise be closed. They don't send any thing serious to them. If you ever apply for ssi/ssdi you'll realize that. They are just for run of the mill stuff. They get the contracts because they're cheaper then sending people to actual specialists until they actually need a specialist.
Also Hamber lied about it either way, but I thought I'd clear up the case worker thing. This is not some one actually telling these people their mental health issues. They just make sure they aren't suicidal and fill their RX, if that. Becky and Eric could just as easily be using a Family Doctor for their basic RX stuff. They're on it for at least months on end. I know alot of family doctors will just fill things like that because you'll always be on it for the foreseeable future and you can save time and money just having them do it.
