*Comprehensive Financial Navigation Program
We know the cost of cancer care and other infusion treatments can be stressful. To help, GBMC’s Sandra & Malcolm Berman Cancer Institute is extending its comprehensive financial navigation program for those who are actively receiving cancer treatment or infusions not related to cancer. The program connects you with support such as:
- Co-pay assistance
- Free or reduced cost medications
- Aid from charitable foundations
Patients who are receiving cancer therapies or other types of infusion treatments (such as iron or antibody infusion) may receive a call from our team about financial support options. Calls will come from 443-377-3972. These calls are part of our effort to connect you with assistance that can make your care more affordable. This service is free for our patients and will start on September 25, 2025.
