Together Rx Expanding Coverage in Tough Economic Climate

This press-release from The Body is welcome news in this economy! Together Rx Access is a program that helps families pay for medication, and they just made it so that more people can get help. For instance, before the change, somebody who made over 30 grand was not eligible. Now somebody who makes under 45 grand is eligible! That's an increase of 50%!

It certainly appears to be worth looking into, and is especially relevant to people with chronic diseases like HIV, where missing medication can be the difference between life and death. Just a few missed doses and HIV can develop a resistance. What kinds of other obstacles stand in the way of people taking their medications?
