How has the cost of living with PH affected your budget?
Ever been hit with a case of sticker shock when paying for medical bills or everyday essentials? You’re not alone.
Last month , I shared some personal financial struggles and what I’m doing to stay afloat in my PH News column, “Do you find yourself going broke while managing PH? You’re not alone.”
Managing the cost of PH is a big concern for many in our community. What are your biggest worries? Do you have any tips or tricks that have helped you? Let’s talk about this and support each other. Share your thoughts below.

@Des is a new member who informed me that she has been approved for a Co-Pay.org grant. Having been diagnosed only a few months ago, she thought it would be nice to put some resource information out for others. I thought her suggestion fits well with @jen-cueva post and column.
@Des can you share the process you went through to apply for this grant and how long it took for a response? How long is the grant good for and can you re-apply for it?
Do any other members know of grants and assistance that you can recommend?

Hey @Colleen and forum members, I did want to share a link that I recently learned about from the American Lung Association. I’ll share the link with you all below and hope that maybe one of the resources will benefit at least one person in the forums.

Financial assistance programs can help you pay for medical treatment. Learn more about different types of programs and what to look out for.

Hi @Colleen-Steele , and forum members,
I have some other resources I’d like to share, but I’ll need a moment to go through my endless notes and find them.
In the meantime, everyone is welcome to contribute. You can also find several copay assistance links within the treatment topics in that subforum.
