Oh goodness!!

I’m sure that you/he has probably tried everything possible for assistance in his medical bills. Does he qualify any state benefits of any kind? I know some people don’t like to take ‘charity’ but I remind people it’s their tax dollars at work!

Second thing I would do, if it hasn’t already, is to check with the manufacturer of each of his drugs to see if they have any type of manufacturer discount or coupon. They work even with insurance. One of my drugs would cost $180 every three months with my insurance; I would use the discount card after that, which would give me a total out of pocket of $25 every three months. Some manufacturers have an income cap for the assistance; some just do it because they want you to use the product. Some require the prescription to be written a certain way (like for 30 days instead of 90 days). Just google the name of the drug; you’re usually looking for a section that says ‘support’ or something similar.
