Asthma Patient
A patient arrived to his appointment with the PDAN Coordinator toting a large oxygen tank. He confided to the coordinator that he had been tapering his medication down to make them last longer because he couldn’t afford them. PDAN helped him apply to several prescription assistance programs, and he was able to get his medications for free. During his renewal appointment, he expressed that he was doing much better and utilizing less oxygen because he could take his medications as his doctor had prescribed.
