If you have become unemployed, seek health coverage through COBRA, though you may have to pay the premium.

If you are a veteran, get medical coverage under the VA health care. This also covers for free diagnostic tests and examination.

If one is mentally challenged, there are free Medicare services provided from the government for entire life.
