Is this legitimate?

My suggestion is to ask your physician's office staff about this. You are right in being hesitant about sharing personal information.

I was wondering if anyone had experience with this the Patient Advocate Foundation Co-pay Relieft?

http://www.copays.org/

Is this legitimate? They need a SS# to apply and I am hesitant on giving away my personal information just like that.

How can check to make sure this organization is real and trustworthy?

Thanks!

I don't know anything about that org. But I never, never give anyone my SSN unless it's a hospital/doctor etc. Be VERY careful!!!

Hi,
I have to agree with Katie, I'm very careful about who I give my SS# to.
Maybe you could call your state or county department of health or state insurance board and ask if they're familiar with the patient advocate foundation.

I also agree --- be extremely cautious about sharing personal information on the internet.
