Emergency Prescription Assistance Program for the CNMI

Following Super Typhoon Sinlaku, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has activated the Emergency Prescription Assistance Program (EPAP) for uninsured residents of Saipan, Rota, and Tinian in the CNMI. The program covers up to a 30-day supply of prescription medications at no cost through participating pharmacies, and can also help replace durable medical equipment like wheelchairs, walkers, and blood glucose meters. Residents can call 855-793-7470 or visit the EPAP website to check eligibility and find a participating pharmacy. Note that those enrolled in Medicare, Medicaid, or CHIP are not eligible.
