Bringing Cure Within Reach
Introduction​
At the CureRIE Institute, we are committed to advancing medical research and delivering innovative treatments to patients in need. We recognize that financial barriers can prevent access to essential healthcare services for many individuals and families. To bridge this gap, the CureRIE Institute's Patient Sponsorship Program provides financial support to patients who face challenges in affording care. By combining compassionate assistance with groundbreaking medical care, we aim to bring cures closer for every patient who qualifies for our program.
​
Program Overview
The CureRIE Patient Sponsorship Program offers financial assistance to patients with financial hardship and an urgent medical need for specialized evaluation or treatment. Our mission is to make life-changing treatments accessible to those who might otherwise be unable to afford them. This program is designed to ensure that financial circumstances are not a barrier to receiving the care patients need.
​
Eligibility Criteria
Patients must meet the following criteria to be considered for sponsorship:
-
Financial Hardship: Applicants must provide documentation, such as recent tax returns, pay stubs, medical bills, or other relevant records, demonstrating that they are experiencing significant financial strain.
-
Medical Necessity: A licensed healthcare provider must determine that the patient requires evaluation or treatment associated with the CureRIE Institute. This includes conditions for which CureRIE offers innovative or otherwise unavailable treatment options or when care is needed at a far distance.
