What Can I Do About My Abusive Spouse? I Really Need Help ????

So I live in NC and today it got physically abusive. Cops called, they were useless and just told him to leave. Issue is I'm financially dependent on him because I'm disabled and he keeps trying to get me to move out/leave but I don't have the means to and also anyone I have is back up north. Is there anything I can do legally? I need the health insurance because I have a bad heart and take meds to stop my seizures and I get it from him and if I leave the state I lose my job. I don't know what to do... Please if anyone can give any advice. It's been 2 years of getting screamed at, called horrific things, and some sexual assault happened recently but I've had no choice but to stay and I'm scared to press charges because I can't afford to live here alone... I don't know what to do.
