Patient Assistance Programs are not insurance or government programs. Almost all pharmaceutical companies in the US sponsor a Patient Assistance Program, which provides their medications for free. There are hundreds of programs, and the qualification requirements can be very different between them. Most programs have income limits and insurance limits, and patients must prove they are eligible to receive the free medicine. Most programs require a doctor's signature on the application and a new prescription.
Our volunteers can help you understand the requirements specific to your situation.
Every situation is different, and you may find that you qualify for some programs and not others. It is critical to understand exactly what the programs require before you send in an application. Most programs require proper income verification documents, prescription drug insurance coverage information, prescriptions, and doctor and patient signatures. Incomplete applications can cause significant delays and frustration. Be sure to read and complete all application thoroughly before applying. If necessary, have someone capable provide help.
