About the program This program provides emergency, temporary financial assistance to qualifying individuals to help cover the cost of diabetes injectables care for one to three months. This program is not intended as a long-term solution and we do not send medications. This program is for those who have trouble affording co-pays for injectables and those who have no insurance coverage. The maximum assistance anyone can receive from this program is currently $150.00. It is our hope that this benefit amount will increase in the near future. The following items may be covered in full or in part:
Note 1 - Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA) is a form of diabetes that leads to the destruction of the beta islets cells in the pancreas. The patient will eventually become insulin dependent the same as in type 1 diabetes. BYETTA is sometimes prescribed to LADA patients in early stages to help prevent or slow further destruction of the beta islets cells. Unlike with many type 2 patients, LADA patients cannot control blood sugars or prevent pancreas burnt-out with lifestyle changes and are often limited to few medical options.
