Help Paying for Medications

Useful Information

We understand the cost of prescription medications can be prohibitive, especially when a patient is taking multiple medications, does not have drug coverage or an insurance company will not pay for a medication.

We try our best to assist patients in finding ways to get their medications. Please contact the office if you need additional assistance.

Patient Assistance Programs

I need help paying for my brand name medications
Most brand name medications (drugs that do not have generic alternatives) have Patient Assistance Programs (PAPs) offered by pharmaceutical companies. We have included links for those PAPs below. If you do not see the name of the drug you take, check to make sure there is no generic alternative. If there is no generic alternative and the medication isn’t listed below, please contact the office for additional assistance.
