About us

Our Mission: The HealthWell Foundation reduces financial barriers to care for underinsured patients with chronic or life-altering diseases. About Us: Founded in 2003, the HealthWell Foundation (www.healthwellfoundation.org) is an independent, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization providing financial assistance to insured patients living with chronic and life-altering illnesses to help them afford their medical treatments. For many Americans, having health insurance does not mean being able to afford the critical medical treatments they desperately need. When health insurance is not enough, HealthWell assists in closing the gap. Thanks to our health care partners and generous corporate and individual donors, every day, we put life-saving medications within reach for hundreds of patients in need living with chronic and life-altering illnesses. We help pay their share of prescription drug copayments, deductibles, and health insurance premiums for important medical treatments. As patients are required to pay a larger share of health care costs each year, out-of-pocket expenses for essential medications can add up to hundreds or thousands of dollars a month - much more than many people earn. By reducing this financial stress, the people we serve can focus on what's most important - their health. Since inception, HealthWell has assisted more than 500,000 people with more than $1.67 billion in patient grants across 70 disease areas. All administrative and fundraising costs are financed by HealthWell, and 100% of donations fund patient grants and services.

    For most Americans, summertime means taking it easy. School is out and beach days and barbecues are in. But for the HealthWell Foundation and the patients who count on us, summer is no vacation. As the heat and humidity soar, so does the need for financial assistance to help patients pay for life-changing and lifesaving medical treatments. That is why HealthWell continues to work tirelessly through the dog days of summer and beyond to support those who need us. We invite you to read our newsletter, The Pulse, to learn more about what we’ve been up to recently. Visit https://bit.ly/46jHzNF to read the full newsletter.

    The White House Cancer Moonshot called on the cancer community to improve the experience of people and their families living with and surviving cancer. One key to that improved experience is expanding access to services to help patients and their families navigate health care treatments for cancer and other serious illnesses. For 40 years, Cancer Support Community (CSC) has shared the vision that everyone impacted by cancer receives the support they want and need throughout their experience. Underscored by the belief that community is stronger than cancer, CSC strives to uplift and strengthen people impacted by cancer by providing support, fostering compassionate communities, and breaking down barriers to care.
