Also contact the pharmaceutical company that manufactures the meds. Some offer assistance to people in need.
You might contact diabetic associations and see if they know of any companies that offer discounts or assistance for diabetics.

ccoburn, see if your Dad can qualify for Medicaid [which is different from Medicare]. Call your State Medicaid office.
