Advice for widowed mother [Question - Insurance]

Advice for mother [US]

My father suddenly passed away and now my mother and brother are uninsured. I’m away in the military and unable to help my mom right now with this issue. She is not 60 yet so she does not qualify for Medicare from the social security widows benefits. Would healthcare.gov help? Does that tell her what she can get?

Another thing I don’t understand is my father had UnitedHealthCare but there are still so many bills from the hospital his last few days. What is the point of insurance if it didn’t cover the majority of the cost?

Do I tell my mother to check out healthcare.gov?

How can I do this

Hi, I’m super new to this subreddit but it seems pretty good. The reason I came here is because I desperately needed some type of girl support group for some advice. So here’s my problem, how can I learn to stop hating myself. I’ve been going to therapy for a while and tried all the methods but no matter what I do I can’t get over my crippling self image. Please some advice
