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.

Also, Partnership For Prescription Assistance. That's the one with Montel Williams doing their commercials. Try it! 1-888-477-2669

Some states have new drug programs set-up, now.

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! [bonk] [bonk] [bonk]

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