Warning

There are legitimate companies that charge for helping you obtain free or lower cost medications. These companies fill out and submit applications, track your prescriptions and provide other valuable services. You will find some of these listed below. However, you do not need to pay for information about these companies or other prescription assistance programs. This information is free from many good sources including your doctor, CareNet and many websites.

Avoid:

  • Companies charging money to find out if you can get free medications.
  • Companies charging money with a promise they will find you free medications.

If you have any questions about a website or company, ask your healthcare provider.
