CANCERCARE announced the availability of co-payment assistance for pancreatic cancer patients through the CancerCare Co-Payment Assistance Foundation.

People receiving assistance from CCAF also have access to the full array of CancerCare services, including counseling, support groups, resource referrals, publications, education and financial assistance with treatment-related expenses such as transportation and child care.

“We are thrilled to provide this crucial co-payment assistance to people coping with a pancreatic cancer diagnosis,” said Patricia Goldsmith, CEO of CancerCare. “Pancreatic cancer can be an especially challenging diagnosis to treat, and the CancerCare Co-Payment Assistance Foundation is committed to easing the financial burden so that patients can focus on managing their diagnosis and maintaining quality of life during treatment.”
