Financial and Medical Resources for Epilepsy

Phylis Feiner Johnson has posted a very useful article on her blog Epilepsy Talk about financial and medical resources for people with epilepsy, entitled "Epilepsy--Top Financial and Medical Assistance Programs." providing a list of good websites.

One that I was impressed with was the Josh Provides.  This one provides financial aid to people with epilepsy who need help paying for transportation, medications, or seizure detection devices, among other things.

Another one she listed was the Social Security Disability Resource Center, an unofficial site about Social Security Disability. It gives you basic information about SSDI and answers some commonly asked questions.

She also mentioned some prescription assistance websites.  In particular, a good one is the Partnership for Prescription Assistance is a collaboration between drug companies, government agencies, and medical organizations to help patients get access to medications at a reduced cost.
