NEED MEDICATIONS BUT CAN’T AFFORD THE PRICE? This new book offers help!
FREE (or Almost Free) Prescription Medications: Where and How to Get Them by David Johnson is a 230-page, step-by-step guide to over 168 assistance programs offering thousands of prescription medicines for free (or almost free) to those who qualify. All of these programs require that a person have no insurance that provides prescription coverage and not be eligible for Medicaid. While these programs have income guidelines, only 13 require that income be less than $715 per month for a single person. Most of the programs allow a monthly income between $1,079 and $3,210 for single persons. Each drug company program has its own listing that includes everything a person needs to know in order to apply for medications:
· The name, address, and toll free phone number of each drug company · Eligibility requirements · Instructions on how to enroll in the program · What the doctor will have to do · What the individual will have to do · Where the medication can (and cannot) be mailed · The amount of medication a person is eligible to receive · The amount of time to expect to wait to receive medications · The number of refills allowed.
As prescription drug costs continue to soar and more people are without health insurance today, this book is an invaluable resource for individuals as well as health care professionals and advocates for seniors. Free (or almost free) Prescription Medications: Where and How to Get Them helps people take advantage of the savings offered by these free (or almost free) drug company programs.
David Johnson grew up in Michigan and now lives in the Pacific Northwest with his trusty sidekick Augie D. Dogg, two children, and two granddaughters. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from Ferris State University in 1974 and is currently working on a B.S. in Sociology. David says: “We look around us and see things we feel or know should be changed. Our first thought is ‘I am only one person. I cannot solve such a huge problem. What can I do?’” David has shown that one person can do something and make a difference.
