Need help paying for a prescription?
MedAssist may be able to help ...

MedAssist can help uninsured individuals who live or work in Summit County to access prescription medications. The program can:

  • Help clients to apply for free or low-cost medications for any drug available through the drug companies. MedAssist can help complete the necessary applications and obtain the required information from the individual's doctor.
