Creating Revenue to Pay for Medical Bills

Whether your situation is immediate or starts with various symptoms the medical bills begin to trickle in one by one. At some point in the process you start to wonder how am I going to afford the care I need or my loved one needs to fight my medical battle? The expenses continue to rise without an end in sight. Fear sets in and it becomes overwhelming.  

Here are some out of the box ideas to consider:

• First work with your care providers and ask for options. You won’t get any consideration if you don’t ask.
  
• Yard Sale – get rid of all that clutter and sell it.
  
• Hold a community event to generate income to support your patient.
  
• Start a 503c non-profit organization and ask for donations.
  
• If a child is involved – ask the school to hold a fundraiser.
  
• Ebay – look around your house and see if there are items you could consider putting on Ebay for  sale. Google top selling items on ebay. The items will surprise you.
  
• Ask local food establishments to support the patient and hold an event night where a percentage of the profits goes to the patient.
  
• Ask local non-profit organizations for financial support.
  
• Lean on Social Media ideas like “Go Fund Me”.
  
• Ask local businesses for fundraising ideas to sell their products for the cause. It not only promotes their business but shows support for the community.
