Dispensary of Hope

For anyone who is uninsured and taking expensive maintenance medication, this may be of interest. The following description is taken directly from the Dispensary of Hope website:

"The Dispensary of Hope is a not-for-profit network of dispensing sites, sourcing partners and financial partners that assist people without prescription drug coverage.

Founded in 2003, the Dispensary supplies both short-term and long-term medicines to people who can’t afford them and lack the insurance to access them. The Dispensary collects and distributes medication from a variety of sources including: Physicians’ offices, distributors and manufacturers who send us their donated medication and excess inventory.

Our centralized inventory system processes these shipments and distributes medications as requested by our dispensing sites to uninsured patients with incomes below 200 percent of the federal poverty guidelines."
