I need to find a hospital, doctor, services for free knee replacement?

i have no insurance and can not walk on my right knee and have no way to get any insurance. I need a knee replacement and can not fund it in any way. I have had severe osteoarthritis and had 5 arthroscopic surgeries and now can not walk on it and myknee is painful. I had insurance and had surgery then fell and was still off work and then lost my insurance and job too. i applied for medicaid and have been turned down i also damaged my right shoulder and arm which goes numb and i can not get repaired and it is so hard to get around at all because of my leg and arm. If you can help me let me know. thanks.

Consult a Govt Hospital . Even there they charge you for prosthesis. if u cant afford even that, contact some social organization who are doing charity work.
