Treatment through medication is a foundation of patient self-management, reducing complications, mortality and morbidity when diseases are treated early and aggressively. Unfortunately, many of our patients lack prescription drug coverage-even those who may be otherwise insured. Neighborhood HealthSource increases our patients' access to needed medications through a variety of means:
- As a PHS 330-funded health center (Federal funding), we purchase select
drugs at great discount through the federal 340B Drug Pricing Program.
We share this cost-savings with our eligible patients through a partnership with VitaLife Pharmacy.
We receive select sample medications from pharmaceutical companies to help some of our poorest patients who must take expensive drugs for chronic conditions.
Our nurses assist hundreds of uninsured, low-income patients in accessing free medications through drug companies' Indigent Care programs.
Our staff lends a hand to our patients who are 65+ and other eligible patients with disabilities to navigate the complex bureaucracy of Medicare Part D enrollment.
Our MDs, Nurse Practitioners and other nursing staff provide counseling and health education around medication management to help our patients understand the purpose and limitations of medication and to increase compliance through education and efforts to make medication affordable.
