Tri-Cities (Kennewick, Richland, and Pasco) Assistance Programs.

Prescription Medication

Grace Clinic is hoping to help low-income and uninsured residents in Benton and Franklin counties by providing information and assistance in applying for prescription drug assistance programs. The program helps those who have chronic diseases by providing them with discounts on medications to treat conditions such as heart disease and diabetes. There are a few ways that you can get free prescriptions. One way is to see if your doctor will give you a free sample of the medication that you need. Another way is to check with local pharmacists to see if they have any programs that offer free or discounted prescriptions. You can also check with your insurance company to see if they have any programs that can help you save money on your prescriptions.

Grace Clinic has hired a prescription assistance coordinator and the clinic has begun to offer help to its clients last fall. The clinic now offers help to its clients with their prescription needs. Since then, almost 70% of the clinic’s patients have received almost $80,000 worth of prescription medications. The assistance program helps both patients and doctors’ offices.

There are many patients in the Tri-Cities who can benefit from this assistance program. Call 509.735.2300
