My friend just found out she was pregnant and she need insurance but can't afford it. So we been trying all day to find a web site that she can apply for Missouri medicade. She need prenatal care asap... any adivice she would rather apply online then having to go to the office. Any links or advise would be amazing thanks in advance.

She should go to the local Health Department and sign up there. That's something you have to do in person as they will need to see that the person really is pregnant and get any proper identification and residency paperwork at that time taken care of. You can't just sign up over the internet. Sorry.

I don't think that you can do it online. I think that you have to go into the office because they need a lot of information from the person, like proof of income, residency, if they own any property. It all goes baised on your income. Plus you have to provide a license or id and birth certificates and social security cards. It is a long process.

She will have to do it in person most likely taking 2 or 3 visits, first visit, and at least 2nd to return various documents and then regular follow up visits. There will be various forms to fill out and documents to sign, beyond them doing a check on the info given.
