The Medical Care Access Coalition (MCAC) of Dickinson County is a non-profit organization dedicated to assisting residents in obtaining free essential medications and healthcare services. Through pharmaceutical and discount drug programs, MCAC helps individuals who cannot afford prescription medications, ensuring they have access to vital treatments like insulin for diabetes. With a small office staff and a team of dedicated volunteers, MCAC also provides free Medicare and Medicaid counseling, as well as assistance with health insurance enrollment. In 2019 alone, MCAC obtained $1.2 million worth of free medications for clients, safeguarding their health and well-being.
MCAC recently received a generous $60,000 Community Investment Grant from Enbridge Inc., a Canadian energy transportation company. This grant will further support MCAC's mission to alleviate the financial burden of prescription and healthcare expenses for area residents. As a vital community resource, MCAC plays a crucial role in ensuring that over 1,400 Upper Peninsula residents receive the medications and healthcare services they need, even in the face of financial challenges. With ongoing funding and strong partnerships like Enbridge, MCAC continues to make a significant impact on the well-being of individuals in Dickinson County and beyond.
