Free Med Solutions
Monday August 2, 2004
Pamela Aldred explains about this site: "I was disabled around 5 years ago with a chronic illness compounded by Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Around 2 years ago, I went to the Mayo Clinic ; and, after 3 weeks, was handed 7 prescriptions to be filled every month. So of course I ask them, 'How am I going to pay for the medications
, my disability check is just enough to cover my living expenses?'. They didn't have an answer, and frankly I don't feel they really cared either. I then approached the state I live in and they denied me because they said my disability was too much. I was in a no win situation. My savings was already depleted from the years of illness, and nobody was helping me in finding solutions. I stumbled upon Patient Assistant Programs in my quest of finding a resource to help me. These are programs sponsored by pharmaceutical companies which offer free medications to those who qualify. These programs have been in existence for at least 7 years, and are a result of an agreement between pharmaceutical companies and Congress. We researched the programs for 2 years, and did a test pilot in our state for 1 year so that we could get a real feel for the programs. Our website provides instant, accurate information, and applications to apply to over 170 Programs offering more than 1,000 brand name medications. We also offer a toll free number for those who do not have access to the internet, or those who need personal assistance. To be honest with you, we pretty much put everything we have into the development of this website, and are approaching organizations such as yourself, in a attempt to reach as many individuals as possible who may be in a similar situation as I was. Please check our site out and help others obtain the medications they need."
