It Starts with the Patient
“High quality healthcare is not just about treatment; it’s about a care plan that considers challenges to daily life – transportation, housing, food security, employment, childcare and self-care.”

Jearlene | Osteoporosis" I have high cholesterol and am unable to take certain medications … I was prescribed a drug that works well but was unable to afford the high cost. Your co-pay program allows me treatment that is affordable. "
Patricia | Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia" … All I have talked with have been very kind…I am very well pleased and very satisfied with all your efforts… "
Ola | Metastatic Colorectal Cancer" I am so thankful for the co-payment assistance you offered.

Meg Ann | Myelodysplastic Syndrome" Thank you for all the help in the past years … without your help, my family and I could not afford my medication and the risk of severe liver problems may occur if I stop taking it … thank you very much from the bottom of my heart, I can live longer to see my sons grow up … "
