Have you ever gone to pick up a prescription only to find out you couldn’t
afford it? Some people can only imagine what that’s like, but for others,
it’s a reality. And it’s happening to more and more people right now—or
they’re simply not filling prescriptions, knowing they’ll pay a different
kind of price in symptoms that get worse, and more days they can’t be with
the people they love.

In
one recent survey, 3 out of 4 older adults reported that they can’t afford to
pay more than $200 a month for their medications. That’s far below the
average out-of-pocket cost of $660 a month for a specialty medication. This is a problem all across our nation
and right around the corner from you.
Like you, the PAN Foundation wants that to change. And as you may know, we’re
on the forefront of fighting to lower out-of-pocket medical costs through our
advocacy efforts.
