I know nothing about Tenncare- sorry about that. -- Posted by jmh7 at 9:00 pm on Sep. 3, 2008 dude i fucking hate WIC Checks!!!!!!!!!!!! -- Posted by swtpie at 9:18 pm on Sep. 3, 2008 Ask them this stuff. -- Posted by audrey820 at 6:44 am on Sep. 4, 2008 Tenncare sounds like it's a lot like our Masshealth system. Definitely apply, they're there for people who don't have the money to have a baby. They'll cover almost everything for you. WIC is also for people with low or no income. They'll give you like milk and stuff while you're pregnant and formula(if you use it) once the baby is born. It's not good to depend on forever, of course. But it can help you through the tough time when you're trying to finish school and can't work.
