Frequently Asked Questions
How do you determine if I am eligible for medication assistance.
When you call MAC you will be asked a series of questions to determine your eligibility for medication assistance. This usually requires a determination of financial need. After one call to the Medication Assistance Center, you will go through an eligibility screening process and then be set up with an appointment to complete the application process.
The staff at MAC orders medications from pharmaceutical manufactures through their Patient Assistance Programs. These medications are provided free of charge from the company. If the medications you need are not covered through these options, MAC also offers its own pharmacy discount card which can provide discounts up to as much as 40% for generic medications.
MAC has greatly simplified the process of accessing patient assistance programs by making everything you need available at one place. Once your physician signs off on your medications, your prescriptions are sent directly to your doctor every ninety days. When it's time for renewal, the Medication Assistance Center will take care of that too.
