Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

NC MedAssist is a nonprofit pharmacy program providing access to lifesaving prescription medications, client support, advocacy and other services to poor, vulnerable, and uninsured North Carolina residents.

  • NC MedAssist is a nonprofit pharmacy program providing access to lifesaving prescription medications, patient support, advocacy and related services to poor, vulnerable, and uninsured North Carolina residents. Within the pharmacy program, the manufactures are pulling the donated name brand drugs from their free assistance programs. MedAssist must then pay for the generic alternative. Therefore, our costs are increasing dramatically.The Mobile Free Pharmacy (MFP) Medicine program receives donated OTC medicine from Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina. Over $7.2 Million in average retail cost of OTC medicine went out to low-income families this year. Studies show that for every $1 in value of OTC medicine spent, there is a $6 savings in health care costs prevented. The Transitional Jobs Program (TJP) is a paid work-based learning opportunity for individuals who are experiencing long term unemployment and/or barriers to employment. The program is intended to help increase the social, business and customer service skills o its participants so they can have a better chance to break through those barriers and find employment.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
