​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​How The Program ​Works

KPAP helps qualifying individuals identify sources of free and low-cost medications offered by pharmaceutical companies. The process reduces paperwork and offers more direct access to programs.

Staff members collaborate with medical personnel and community agencies such as churches, hospitals and social services to provide information about KPAP, identify resources and determine how the community can best help individuals access assistance programs.

Eligibility

Eligibility for the KPAP program is determined by various criteria that differ among participating pharmaceutical companies. This can include factors such as current health insurance coverage and household income. Clients whose income or resources make them ineligible for existing drug assistance programs will receive guidance on other options for low-cost prescriptions. If you need KPAP assistance, our staff are happy to look up your medications for you and provide you with information on available programs. If you need assistance with prescriptions, please call the KPAP Hotline at 1-800-633-8100. We are open Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM EST.​

How to become a KPAP Partner

KPAP community consultants are available to meet with you and your agency upon request to discuss becoming a KPAP partner site. Community consultants collaborate with medical personnel, social service agencies, faith-based organizations, government agencies, non-profit organizations, free clinics and other community groups to provide information about KPAP and the software used by the program. Once an organization decides to participate, community consultants can provide ​training.
