… Program eases cost burden for patients with pancreatic cancer

PAF’s Co-Pay Relief (CPR) program is pleased to announce that assistance will now be available to patients with pancreatic cancer through the launch of a new disease fund that can provide direct payment for co-payments, co-insurance and deductibles required by the patient’s insurer for medications prescribed to treat and manage their disease.

Specific information relative to the pancreatic cancer fund is provided below: 

Maximum annual award level: $8,000

Eligibility criteria:

• Patient must be covered by Medicare, Medicaid, or Military Benefits, and insurance must cover the medication for which patient seeks assistance.
• Patient must have a confirmed diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.
• Patient must reside and receive treatment in the United States.
