I have very bad GERD and finally found something to help me. It was Prevacid. It was expensive, but we had insurance. Then my husband lost his job and I lost mine. We were collecting unemployment while we were job hunting (I got a job, he didn't, yet).in the mean time, I watched a commercial with Montel Williams about help for people like us with medicines. I contacted the company, paid my money and sent in a package of forms that takes days to fill out. I heard from Tap Pharmaceuticals with more forms. After not hearing anything, and getting sicker and sicker, I called them. I had been turned down because my Dr had forgotten something on one of the dozens of forms. I took care of that problem by doing EXACTLY what I was told to do and sat down to wait again. A month later I called again to find out that I had been turned down again. This time who ever opened my packet did not see the "letter" I had to write, explaining my life history (required) so they denied me again. Several phone calls and reports (even my Dr was getting upset to have to sign and fill out mountains of paperwork (The cost of mailing all of this was not good to someone with no income) Then I was denied because I had NOT APPLIED FOR MEDICAID!!! I wanted to get a job NOT assistance!!! I thought Tap would help until I could get insurance coverage again, I was wrong. Do not fall for some new ad that speaks of a card you can use. I am sure it is as phony as they are! I also reported this to Montel Williams, but he is still doing the commercial. I have been getting help from my brother with the medicine. I have never gotton my money back to apply for this program as they promised eithe
