MaineCare co-payments for prescription drugs or services

Have co-payments made it difficult for you or someone you know to get health care?

We need to know!

Recent cuts at the federal and state level may lead to increases in co-payments for MaineCare members for services and prescription drugs. Many people don’t realize the negative impact that an increase in co-payments – even what may seem like a small increase – can have on MaineCare recipients’ access to healthcare. But we know that even an increase of one or two dollars can force people to go without services. There’s a lot of research to back this up.

If MaineCare co-payments for prescription drugs or services have made it difficult for you or someone you know to access health care, please call Crystal Bond at 1-866-626-7059 x205
