Prescription assistance for cancer and specialty medications

High-cost specialty medications often require prior authorization, foundation grants, manufacturer assistance, site-of-care coordination, and insurance appeals. Your prescribing clinic and specialty pharmacy are usually the fastest path through that system.

Ask specifically about copay assistance, foundation grants, free-drug programs, Medicare Part D Extra Help, Medicaid eligibility, and nonprofit disease-specific assistance.

Sticker prices for specialty drugs can be shocking. Many patients do not pay the list price after benefits, grants, assistance programs, or appeals are applied. Escalate affordability issues immediately to the clinic, pharmacist, insurer, and manufacturer support line.
