Pharmaceutical Assistance Programs

Some Pharmaceutical Companies offer assistance programs for the drugs they manufacture. To see if any programs are available for the drugs you are taking, please go to the CMS Medicare Part D webpage http://www.medicare.gov/pap/index.asp, select the letter in the list provided to see if your drug is on the list. If your drug is on the list, click on the link labeled "details" for detailed information about the program.

Additionally, 21 states and one territory offer help with paying drug plan premiums and/or other drug costs. You can find out if your State has a program by visiting the CMS State Pharmaceutical Assistance Program site at http://www.medicare.gov/spap.asp.
