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.”
Alan J. Balch, PhD
Chief Executive Officer
" How can anyone just say “thank you” when you have your life saved…that’s exactly what your organization did for me. There would have been no way I could pay for the cost of my medication… "
Dominica | Hepatitis B" …PAF’s Co-Pay Relief Program has made this difficult situation less stressful and provided a hopeful outcome. Without this assistance I do not know how my situation might have turned out. I am so grateful… "
Bobby | Metastatic Prostate Cancer" The appropriate place to start is to express my appreciation for your participation in my cancer fighting efforts. Upon hearing the expected cost of the [prescribed cancer fighting therapy] my immediate thought was that cancer would be a contributing cause of my death since that level of expenditure would never fit into a retired teacher’s budget. Therefore please accept my sincere thanks… "
Ray | Multiple Myeloma" With your help I am able to purchase the drugs that will help me finally beat this illness and be rid of it for good. Thank you so much. "
Stan | Hepatitis C" Thank you ever so much for all you help! "
Edmond | Bladder Cancer" Thank you for the co-pay assistance. I appreciate it! "
