Every drug manufacturer has a Patient Assistance program. You have to apply to each one (depending on the drug you’re using), some of them will allow you to call them. Also your county or state has an Area office on Aging ( Ohio ) or Agency on Aging ( Michigan) ( each state may have a different name ) they can help too. I am a retired RN and as a Care Navigator, I did this for patients. You also my ask your oncologist
