increase awareness of patient assistance programs and boost
enrollment of those who are eligible. Through this site, the

Thanks Bob!
I think there are a (very) few pharmaceutical companies also trying to help. The makers of Trex also offer a "Bridges to Access" program for uninsured and underinsured sufferers. Each time we find one of these types of programs, it gives me a little bit of hope for the future.

Here's another good site www.needymeds.com. Gives pharmaceutical assistance program info as well as forms to download. Also has the Federal Povery Guidelines that some of the companies use. P.M.me if you need help withthis...Put together Rx assistance program for Medicare folks for about 5 years.
