Go to pparx.com. Just follow the prompts and put
in the medications you are on. If you do the
paperwork, then if your insurance doesn't cover
the chemo drugs, the drug company probably will.
It's an easy process. www.pparx.com is a clearing
house for all the drug company programs. This is
great for ANY prescription drug, whether gotten
from your doc (infusion or pills) or from the
pharmacy.

The Partnership for Prescription Assistance brings
together America's pharmaceutical companies,
doctors, other health care providers, patient
advocacy organizations and community groups to
help qualifying patients who lack prescription
coverage get the medicines they need through the
public or private program that's right for them.
Many will get them free or nearly free. Its
mission is to increase awareness of patient
assistance programs and boost enrollment of those
who are eligible. Through this site, the
Partnership for Prescription Assistance offers a
single point of access to more than 475 public and
private patient assistance programs, including
more than 180 programs offered by pharmaceutical
companies. To access the Partnership for
Prescription Assistance by phone, you can call
toll-free, 1-888-4PPA-NOW (1-888-477-2669).
