My mom received a letter as of tommorow she will no longer be covered unless she pays a high premium she can't afford. She is in remission at this time but, she has meds I cant afford and her testing every three months. Does anyone know what I can do to help get get meds covered?

Thanks
Ash

you can check out the cancer web sites and I know there are ones who will help with high deductables and meds for people with insurance I saw it but can not remember where as I have no insurance and I pay for my meds there is only the drug companies for help for me. and I am checking into them, you might want to do the same but they go on family size and income.

If I were you, I would post this in the boards called Emotional Support and Caregivers as well. There is a guy who responds in those areas who calls himself Terato herein. He seems to be up to date on insurance issues and avenues for relief. It is likely that he will respond to this post in one of those boards.

If he does not, consider emailing him herein.

Take care,

Joe
