Get free prescription medications from Eli Lilly.

The Lilly Cares program has been enhanced to provide more families and individuals with free prescription medications and drugs. They have taking these steps in response to the weak economy and the fact that millions of Americans have lost their jobs, and many of those people no longer have prescription drug health coverage.

The Lilly Cares patient assistance program will now accept people who have a household income that is less than 300 percent of the poverty level. In certain cases they may also accept people whose income is even greater than that. This is an increase from the previous threshold of 200 percent level. This now means that the yearly eligible income limit for a family of two is about $45,000 per year. This new cutoff should be able to provide millions of more Americans with free medications.

They also plan on making the income eligibility adjustment as a long-term improvement for the program. To see some of the benefits of pharmaceutical companies offering this type of aid, just over which over the past three years Eli Lilly alone has assisted almost 600,000 patients across the United States and the distributed prescription medications have totaled almost $800 million. That is $800 million in medications that people would not have otherwise been able to pay for and receive.

The program was created and is managed by Lilly Cares Foundation, Inc., and it is a patient assistance program that provides free medications and access to almost all Eli Lilly products for U.S. residents who meet the criteria. Through their hospitals, physicians, and medical providers patients who would otherwise be unable to obtain Lilly medications may be able to qualify for these free medicines.
