Prescription Drug Patient Assistance Resources
The Foundation and the Corporate Advisory Council (CAC) continue
to look for ways to help patients afford the drugs they need to
improve or maintain their state of health. Please have your office or clinic call the MN
Dept. of Human Services for materials on Prescription Drug
Programs -- available at no cost--1-800-657-5683.
Currently, the MAFP Foundation, the Minnesota Medical
Association, the Minnesota Department of Human Services, the
Minnesota Board on Aging, and the Minnesota Medical Managers Group
are collaborating to target seniors, caregivers, clinic managers,
and other medical health professionals in a selected area to educate
them on the availability and use of the prescription drug assistance
programs available. This includes the new Medicare Part D
prescription drug coverage.
