How can I get help with the cost of my medications?
Some pharmaceutical companies offer prescription assistance programs to individuals and families with financial needs. These programs typically require a doctor’s consent and proof of your financial status. They may also require that you have either no health insurance or no prescription drug benefit through your health insurance. FAQs home In addition, there are county, state, and national prescription programs for which you may qualify and special drug discount cards offered by some pharmaceutical companies. The following resources can help you find out more information about patient prescription drug assistance: Partnership for Prescription Assistance is an interactive site designed to help you find patient prescription drug assistance programs for which you may qualify.
