Accessing Prescription Assistance for Affordable Family Health

Accessing quality healthcare can be challenging, especially with the rising cost of drugs over the years. Now, families can take advantage of our Prescription Assistance Program (PAP). This in-office program helps uninsured and underinsured patients access affordable medications so they can receive the treatment they need without financial burden.

Unlike government-assisted programs, PAP does not require endless paperwork or long waiting periods. Book an appointment with Health Services of North Texas. Our primary care providers can help determine if prescription assistance programs are right for you and your family.

Who is in need of prescription assistance programs?

For many, the high cost of drugs can be a barrier to receiving much-needed medical treatment. Prescription assistance programs are designed to help those who are struggling to afford their medications. This may include individuals who are uninsured or underinsured, as well as those with limited income or resources. PAP at HSNT aims to break down this barrier and provide access to affordable medications for those in need.

How does PAP work?

To benefit from PAP, call to meet with one of our primary care providers. During your appointment, we can review your medical history and current prescriptions to determine if you are eligible for PAP. We may ask about your family health insurance coverage, income, and other factors to assess your eligibility.

If you are eligible for PAP, our staff will provide information on how to access the program. PAP can help cover the cost of drugs, such as brand-name and generic prescriptions. For example, some patients in Denton and Collin Counties use PAP to cover insulin, which potentially saves them hundreds of dollars per month or more.

Benefits of PAP

PAP offers numerous benefits for individuals and families seeking affordable healthcare options in Denton, Plano, and Wylie, TX. Some advantages include:

  • Access to discounted or free medications
  • Less financial strain on families
  • Better adherence to prescribed treatment plans
  • Improved overall health outcomes

What if I already have family health insurance?

Even if you already have family health insurance, PAP can still be a useful resource. For instance, some people have high deductibles or limited prescription coverage through their insurance plans. In these cases, PAP can help supplement and reduce out-of-pocket costs. Additionally, PAP may cover certain medications that are not included in your insurance plan. This can expand your treatment options and provide more affordable alternatives for necessary medications.

Is my information private?

At HSNT, our primary care providers understand the importance of patient confidentiality. All information shared during a PAP evaluation is strictly confidential and will only be used to determine your eligibility. Our primary focus is on providing excellent care for our patients, and we are committed to protecting their privacy at all times. Anyone with concerns or questions can speak with our staff for more information.
