What We Do

The HealthWell Foundation provides financial assistance to eligible individuals to cover coinsurance, copayments, healthcare premiums and deductibles for certain treatments. This means that if you've been prescribed a medication and your insurer covers it, but you cannot afford the coinsurance or copayment required, we may be able to help by paying some or all of your costs associated with the medication. Also, if you are eligible for health insurance, but cannot afford the insurance premium, we may be able to help by paying some or all of the medical portion of your insurance premium.

Please keep in mind that the Foundation currently does not assist with the following expenses:

  • Coinsurance and copayments for office visits
  • Administration or infusion costs
  • Medical equipment and supplies
  • Medical transportation
  • Health insurance premium costs for the entire family
  • Deductibles that apply to treatments and services that are not eligible for the approved disease fund
  • Pharmacy compounding costs
  • Over the counter treatments
  • Treatments for side effects (e.g. nausea)

 

 

Testimonial

We would like to say THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts. When Sue was diagnosed with breast cancer, we were emotionally crushed. Then, when the medical bills started coming in, we truly didn't know what we were going to do. When we were facing the possibility of Sue not being able to continue her treatments, Dr. Jones told us about HealthWell and suggested we give you a call. You gave us hope when there was none left. We are still struggling financially, but Sue is doing great and her doctor says she is now cancer free. Our faith is strong and our spirits are high, mainly, due to you. You truly are angels of mercy.

—Bill and Sue, McKinney, TX
