Medication Assistance is assistance for those patients without prescription coverage or those with high deductibles. There is no age limits, however there are income guidelines to go by. We also are able to help some of those patients who have a Medicare D plan and have hit the gap (donut hole) or a particular medication is not covered.- Medicare D enrollment help and comparisons are done. This helps the Medicare D recipient to know which plan best suits them at their personal pharmacy. Enrollment times for Medicare D begin November 15 through December 31.
- Women’s Way/all Women Count enrollments can be done through me. The patient just needs sot call for an appointment. This program covers women in North Dakota who have no medical insurance but enables them to get a routine physical.
- Many other North and South Dakota state program information is available.
