Is SoonerCare considered welfare?

I am pregnant with my first child and plan on taking off work for a few months to breast feed and care for my baby boy. I’m worried my bf and I won’t get married in time for his insurance to covor anything…

I have been told from so many people it is welfare and just as many saying its not. Can I get some clarification.

Answer #1

It’s like welfare. I did some research and it is help from the government. But have you considered getting legally married by court for now and having a ceremony when you get the chance later on. That way, you are on his insurance and you won’t need soonerCare. But don’t marry him just for the insurance or the fact that you have a baby with him. Marry him if you love him.

Answer #2

Oh, and if you do get the soonercare, there is no problem with that. Some people just need some extra help. But make sure that the place you take your child accepts the insurance. And have this all ready BEFORE the baby is born, because when that baby pops out, they immediately start charging you on the hospital bill.

Answer #3

Why do you care? If you need help and it is there you should use it. In general any program that helps people meet their minimum material needs is considered welfare.
