For example, Good Days may provide coverage for specific treatments or aspects of your care.

5. Legal Advice: If you have concerns about the implications of applying for or using this coverage, find an immigration attorney you trust and work with them to get the legal help you need. The Legal Services Corporation can connect you with legal assistance options in your area.
