This holiday season is proving to be a hard time for millions of Americans who have lost their jobs. In Niles and Benton Harbor, unemployment has increased from 6.2 to 13.2 % over the past year and for many workers, getting a pink slip has also meant a loss of health insurance coverage. That is troubling news in a state plagued by nearly 6.2 million cases of fatal diseases, including heart disease, cancer and stroke. Failure to eat medicines as said by the doctors because of lost coverage can lead to poor health outcomes that could have been avoided, as well as expensive surgeries and hospitalizations. Fortunately, help is available for patients in need. Uninsured and financially struggling patients can turn PPA to identify programs that provide free or nearly free access to more than 2,500 brand-name and generic medicines. The PPA is the only point of access to 475 patient assistance programs, including 200 operated by the biopharmaceutical companies. About 220,000 Michigan people have been helped by the PPA and since April 2005, this nationwide effort has helped more than six million people find programs that offer much needed assistance. Patients who need help of any kind can visit the website and avail any help.
