NEED HELP PAYING FOR MEDICINE?
this applies to ALL medicines for whatever disease!!
i just got home from visiting with LEAVE IT TO BEAVER, LARRY MATHEWS, representing DIABETES patients, on the
PARTNERSHIP FOR PRESCRIPTION ASSISTANCE bus traveling nationally all over here in town today for 2 hrs. only, 10-12-09!!
they gave me the following info and i'm just going to type it up so it goes here and other places:
SERVICE TO AMERICA
since the alunch of PPA in april 05, more than 5.7 million americans have found programs that can help them pay for their medicines. thousands more find help every single day.
if you do NOT have prescription coverage and can NOT afford your medicines, call
more than 2400 brand-name and generic medicines are covered. you could get them FREE OR NOREARLY FREE!
EXPRESS SERVICE
here's how you find out if you qualify:
1. know the NAMES and dosages of the medicines you take.
2. call toll free 1.888.477.2669
3. a trained specialst will answer your questions and help you apply.
fyi: there are 10 questions asked. i'm copying this OTHER info since it is apparently DIFFERENT FOR ALL 50 STATES!!
Medicaid/Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP)
There are currently millions of uninsured and financially-struggling patients in America eligible for help through Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) who have not yet enrolled.
Significant health care gaps exist in the U.S. today because low-income patients do not have access to the healthcare coverage they need to better fight disease.
The Partnership for Prescription Assistance is raising awareness of these programs to help ensure that patients get access to the coverage they need to live longer, healthier and more productive lives.
Pick Your State Get an Application ApplyInstructions
To find out if you qualify for help, select the state on the map where you live.
The state programs will be shown with a short summary below the map.
To find out more details about that program click on the program name.
The program details will open a new window where you can see the program information including how to apply for the program.
In most states, you can complete a short application and send it through the mail. Applications should NOT be sent to PPA. ***************************************
