Today, I went to the clinic to pick up a refill of my medication and it was not there, the manufacturer did not send it, so the pharmacist gave me two weeks' worth of samples. I spoke to the nurse that acts as a liaison to the manufacturer, in order, to get my medication. She told me they need my Medicaid denial letter- now they are sending me in circles, I already gave them that information! I'll see the nurse tomorrow and hopefully everything will work in my favor, or else I have to ask my parents for $400 in order to purchase the medicine out of pocket.
Currently, I going through the Abilify Assistance Program, does anyone know of any other programs I can sign up for to get my medicine?

I think each manufacturer has programs, too. It's worth looking into.
I had the runaround last month because I didn't see the tiny notice telling me my insurance changed. It took about $100 to get it all straightened out, but now I have a 90 days supply to get it straightened out again.
I'm glad they were good enough to give you the two weeks supply.
Good luck!!
Well the positive side is that they gave you some samples. And maybe they will give you more, if need be. Seems they would realize how very important it is for yoy to have your medication.
My son came to display parnoid scizophrenia symptoms from a physical source. So the system refuses to label him mentally ill.
He was put on Risperdal by injections, and risperdal is very exspensive. He refused to take it, and refusing to take his medication has been an ongoing problem.
My Virtual Window,
Initially, I refused medication as well, but my family had the judge mandate medication compliance.
I hope for the best for you and your family, this is a serious illness that requires hope and patience.
