Can't Afford Your Meds?

"PAPs are designed to help those in need to obtain their medicines at no cost or at very low cost. All PAPs have different eligibility criteria and requirements, but most involve completing an application form. Some programs require more detailed medical and financial information than others. All PAP applications require a doctor's signature.

For more information on PAPs, call or visit the following:

After being turned down for help from the prescription manufacturer because of the state I live in I spent approx. 16 hrs one day following link after link after link. I found another company willing to help. Its Patient Services, Inc. http://www.uneedpsi.org/ With a simple application and verification of your diagnosis they will help with either prescriptions or health insurance payments for two years if approved then you can reapply. They are very easy to work with and a lifesaver when making the decision between food and meds. Hope this helps someone.
