Prescription Assistance Program Offered
Jan 2008 - Design Benefits has added to their portfolio of health care related services by offering a prescription assistance program. This program is available nationwide to individuals and their families who need maintenance medications but are unable to afford them.
Prescription Assistance Programs (PAPs) provide free or low cost prescription medicine to people who are uninsured or under-insured and meet income guidelines. These programs are sponsored by the pharmaceutical companies who manufacture the medicine and are not to be confused with prescription discount services such as Together Rx Access.
Unlike other programs, the Design Benefits MedPro program actually assists the individual with the application process and provides the necessary patient advocacy that are a requirement of some PAPs.
