Well, I did, and it was time to fulfill a prescription (for a measly, oh, $150!) so it came time to find some alternatives! </p> <p>Anyway, my doctor turned me on to a &quot;patient assistance&quot; program. Basically, I searched online for the website of the company that manufactures the medication I needed and then sent them an email explaining my financial situation. I received a reply the next day complete with information on patient assistance programs and an application to be completed by my doctor and myself. A completed application, attached tax forms and a month of waiting later and I am happy to say I received a little medical card from the company giving me my prescription for FREE! Booyah! </p> <p>Hope this helps anyone out there who might have a similar issue. Good luck! </p> http://digitalartscorps.org/node/656#comments health benefits medications patient assitance prescriptions VISTA Life Wed, 21 Mar 2007 18:23:48 +0000 Corey Funderburk 656 at http://digitalartscorps.org
