Patients with cancer face many challenges: physical, emotional and financial. The Yale New Haven Health Medication Assistance Program (MAP) was launched in 2010 to help patients with high out-of-pocket costs afford their chemotherapy and cancer care medications.
MAP coordinators collaborate across the Yale New Haven Health System to enroll patients in manufacturer and foundation funded medication assistance programs. This allows our patients to focus on their physical and mental health, rather than the burden of their medical expenses. This program directly supports Yale New Haven Health’s vision of “enhancing the lives of those we serve by providing access to integrated, high-value, patient-centered care in collaboration with others who share our values.”
Contact the Medication Assistance Program Coordinator in your area for the most up-to-date program requirements and availability.
Injectables and Infusions:
Uninsured or under-insured patients who cannot afford their medication. Eligibility criteria varies per program.
