Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Alzheimer's / October 2004Payment Aid from Drug Companies
I wonder how many of you know about the assistance programs for low-income seniors that some drug companies have in place. Seniors who make unde $25K a year can be eligible for free pills from the Aricept Assistance program. You can find out about it on pfizer.com. I've applied for assistance to the drug companies for Zyprexa and Nameda too. ___ "Oh I like this idea...Oh yeah. This can't miss." -- Jerry Seinfeld I know about his as I was able to get help for my bipolar and anxiety meds when I didnt have insurance. It is a great help that many are not aware they can get. All you have to do is contact the drug company for an application. After you fill out your part the doctor fills out his and as you say if the income is below 25 thousand you will probably qualify Boydette > I wonder how many of you know about the assistance programs for low-income > seniors that some drug companies have in place. No matter what kind of minimal assistance program they offer it still doesn't make up for the GREED that these slimeballs practice, as they continue to rip off the American public and taxpayers while buying off Congress to protect their unconscionable profits! Everyone in this country is being screwed by these bastards. If I had my way every damn drug and insurance company lobbyist in DC would be tarred, feathered, and dumped in Cheseapeake Bay. > > I wonder how many of you know about the assistance programs for low-income > > seniors that some drug companies have in place.

I agree, but not here in the Chesapeake Bay. Fred > I agree, but not here in the Chesapeake Bay. sorry, it was the nearest large body of water. maybe i should have said "DC sewer treatment plant", which would have been much more appropriate. >Subject: Re: Payment Aid from Drug Companies >From: NO_SPAM_TO_dpharris@gci.net (Dennis P.

Also, just asking your doctor if he has samples can work. I know a guy that has gotten his Aricept free like that for 3 years, and another soul that has about half her Reminyl like that. Illinois can now get some drugs cheaper through Canada ... I'm in favor of Medicare being able to negotiate price the way Canada does, but it does seem some capitalist greed has produced more good drugs than other systems. The way politicians are bought and sold is an issue on many fronts. Bill Some companies will provide families with what are called "compassion drugs." They're drugs that are being tested, and the families must be willing to sign forms guaranteeing that they will not hold the company responsible for any negative effects produced by the drug. http://community.webtv.net/Dalesdomain/CatchMyFancy |
