Please support Senate Bill 914, an important health care fix that puts the needs of Michigan patients first by protecting our access to copay assistance that counts.
Health care has only gotten less affordable, but there’s a small fix you can make that would go a long way.
Patients living with diseases and conditions like cancer, arthritis, hemophilia, and many others often rely on financial support from nonprofit organizations and prescription manufacturers to help us pay for the medicines we need.
Unfortunately, insurance company co-pay diversion schemes are taking our help away.
They’re refusing to count our assistance towards our deductible and out-of-pocket maximums for the year.
In other words, if a patient like me uses copay assistance to pay for a $5,000 monthly treatment, the health insurance plan forces me to pay the $5,000 a second time out of my own pocket.
We shouldn’t be forced to come up with payments twice! Senate Bill 914 would protect us.
We need your help.
