Several resources are available to identify programs that can help individuals pay for prescription drugs. Partnership for Prescription Assistance offers a database of over 150 prescription drug assistance programs available from pharmaceutical companies. The web site allows patients, caregivers or health care providers to search for specific medications and find matching assistance programs. The ASHP/PSSC (American Society of Health-System Pharmacists/Pharmacy Services Support Center) Patient Assistance Program (PAP) Resource Center lists state patient assistance programs and also links to more information about manufacturer-sponsored programs. Children may be eligible for health insurance, including prescription coverage, through the State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP).
