Short Bio

My husband has had IFP for 5 years and we are currently applying for financial assistance for the the drug OFEV.  We have applied to Pharmacare, Department of Health and Wellness and Head Start Program through the Drug Company, Bohringer Ingelheim Canada.  We have be rejected for coverage by all three departments and programs.  Is there anyone else we may be able to contact for help with financial coverage of this drug?  Appreciate any insight into where I should go from here.  Thank you, Clare
