RxAssist — patient assistance program directory

What this actually is

A free searchable directory of the manufacturer patient assistance programs described above, plus practical tools and articles, with a patient center and a provider center. It is information, not money, and it is free to use. Its value is that it collapses the actual hard part of PAPs — finding out which company runs a program for your specific drug and what the current form looks like — into one lookup. Use it before you pay anyone to "find you assistance", because that is precisely what this does for nothing. Be aware of its own stated limits: it offers no medical advice, endorses no drug or pharmacy, and gives no warranty on pricing data, so confirm the terms with the manufacturer program itself before relying on them.

Who qualifies, and what trips people up

No eligibility, no account cost to search. Take the results to your prescriber, since most PAP applications require the prescriber to sign or submit. The directory tells you the program exists; the manufacturer decides whether you qualify, and its income and insurance rules are what govern. Check the date on any program entry and verify against the manufacturer's own page before assuming the terms are current.
