How will prescriptions be paid for if an individual evacuees insurance is unknown or non-existent?
KatrinaHealth.org is a secure online service offering information about individuals’ prescription drug use, and it does not offer financial support for those who do not have the means to pay for their own prescription medications. However, there are a number of sources for finding information about low-cost and free health care coverage options. To find out if children in your care are eligible for public health care coverage programs, please call 1-877-KIDS-NOW, which is managed by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. For others, please log on to www.covertheuninsuredweek.org and read “resources for individuals” in both English and Spanish. Resources on this site are listed for every state, and they may be of help.
