September 2, 2004 -- Are you one of the 44 million Americans walking around with little or no health care insurance? Do you have a health condition or illness that requires you to take medicine that places a financial hardship on you? If so, help is available through little-known, seldom-publicized drug assistance programs that helped over 6 million patients receive free medicine last year alone. Those who benefited included the elderly, needy and disabled.

Every year drug manufacturers give away millions of dollars worth of free prescription drugs to those who can’t afford to purchase them. These free drug give-away programs have such names as the Patient Assistance Program, Indigent Patient Program, or some other name identifying aid or assistance. Unfortunately, a large majority of health professionals including social workers, doctors and nurses are not aware of the existence of these programs. In addition, these helpful programs are not advertised and patients often are not informed about them.

“Up until recently, it was hard to find even the slightest bit of information regarding these programs anywhere. The enrollment process was very time-consuming and there were several complicated applications to complete just to be considered for the hundreds of programs. For there were so many of these programs, and each program had its own criteria, that many who really needed the service found it impossible to get involved”, said Richard Wills, Director of Dragon WorldWide – Global Healthcare Professionals, a volunteer organization committed to helping those who can’t afford their medicine get the help they need.

In addition, Wills went on to say that the application and submission process for these programs has been turbo-charged because of the company’s immediate access to the drug sponsors network, which makes qualifying easy and simple. This acceleration has revolutionized the process in such a way that patients are receiving their free medications 2-3 weeks after approval instead of months by using the services of Dragon WorldWide.

The company’s website, www.free-medicine-usa.com provides complete information on how anyone, regardless of age, can receive free prescription medicine from over 50 major pharmaceutical companies. Although many of these programs are designed for the uninsured poor, elderly and disabled, ordinary citizens and legal residents with maxed out insurance coverage with income up to $50,000 are also eligible for assistance.

Because of the company’s commitment in this area of helping those who can use a little help combating the high cost of prescription medicine, health care facilities, neighborhood community centers, as well as agencies serving the medical community are distributing their brochure, “You Can Start Receiving Free Medicine”, to patients and visitors at their locations.
