Question: What if your insurance company won't cover some of the meds needed? Would you then qualify?
That's especially true for a lot of us.

[Edited for update]
Update: I emailed this organization and they claim that if your insurance company won't pay for meds, then as long as you meet the other qualifications, they will get your meds for $7.00 for each med, per month.
They do the paperwork with the manufacturers of your meds and it's the manufacturers who ship the meds.

Yes, Sparkle, I contacted the folks at Prescription Hope, above and they said yes, I was eligible (because insurance wouldn't pay for some of my drugs.)
They said I didn't have to go off SSDI and Medicare in order to get their meds.
I'm slap happy!

Sadly, I don't see LA Bicillin shots on the list. A lot of patients want those.
