She has CarePLus HMO, needs SPS. She also has Social Security (the special one for low income people) and I was told that she will loose it too. I don't know waht to do. I don't have money to take her to the hospital and pay for medications which in Florida is covered by her insurance. Any advice?
Grace + peace.

Like vegasLady said, you need to find out exactly what programs she is currently on right now & why she qualifies on both federal & state level and for state programs if TX has a program that is available & the same for new residents to enroll in.
An HMO is a closed health insurance system which will have set vendors within the system & it is those vendors that mom needs to use for coverage under the HMO. A HMO system can be large like what Kaiser Permanente is on the west coast has since the 1980's. I doubt the FL HMO will also be in TX. TX has not been a state historically to have HMO set up.
