Family Diabetes Resource Center of Texas

The FDRC was created to be a temporary financial support to families in need. The cost of medical supplies, insurance and copays are very expensive and many families find themselves dealing with unexpected financial crisis at some point. FDRC currently offers grants to families to support these costs. FDRC may provide medical supplies for up to a full year and will assist families in providing better care for their children. The cost for a pump and one year of medical supplies can cost anywhere from $15k – $18k a year for families uninsured. For a family that has insurance, an insulin pump alone can still cost up to $3000 out of pocket. Supplies and insurance ranges anywhere from $250 – $500 a month. Medicaid does not pay for insulin pumps and many families either do not have insurance or, if they do, have a high deductible. The purpose for this project is to help as many families as possible.
