Something I've posted elsewhere many times but it belongs here too is that even if the patient assistance application or people say you are not eligible for some reason (income, having SSDI/Medicare, etc) ,apply anyway. I include a note that you are asking for an exemption due to low income and inability to afford this med which works so much better than any other med for my issues. I have never been rejected with this approach. Sometimes they ask for me to fill out another form (sometimes just checking a box or two) and maybe provide a copy of my Med D card or income proof but always they've eventually given me the medication under patient assistance. It's completely worth trying because even if you find the company that doesn't make exceptions it doesn't cost anything to try and you may have good results.
