Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia Fund Grant

The Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia Fund provides crucial financial assistance to underinsured patients suffering from this rare blood cancer. Through the HealthWell Foundation, the fund helps cover prescription copays, insurance premiums, and treatment-related costs, ensuring access to necessary medical care. With over $1.2 billion in grants awarded, the program has supported more than 1.1 million patients since its inception in 2004.

In 2024, we awarded more than $1.2 billion in grants through our Disease Funds, and since 2004 we have helped more than 1,100,000 patients afford essential treatments and medications.
