Our Medication Assistance Program

Patients may be eligible to receive assistance with the cost of prescriptions. Tri-Area Community Health’s Medication Assistance Program (MAP) helps uninsured patients gain access to low-cost medications. Eligibility is based on income, lack of prescription coverage, and the availability of medications through pharmaceutical assistance programs. Medications are dispensed through Tri-Area Community Health Pharmacies for a minimal fee. Discounts on medications are also available through the sliding scale fee program.

A limited number of medications are available for those enrolled in Medicare D Plans and who qualify based on income requirements. Some of these medications are available during the coverage gap or “donut hole”.

These programs are sponsored by the Virginia Health Care Foundation.

Sliding Fee Program

The Sliding Fee Program allows Tri-Area Community Health patients who are uninsured or under-insured to receive healthcare services at a lower cost. We understand it’s not always possible for patients to be covered by health insurance, or that your insurance may have high deductibles. The Sliding Fee Program helps patients who may not qualify for public benefits and/or who are not able to afford the full cost of healthcare.

After Hours Care

For after-hours medical concerns, please call 888-908-4788

If you require immediate medical attention, proceed to the nearest emergency room, or call 911 to contact your local rescue squad.
