Post-Treatment Financial Support

After medical treatment, remaining costs not covered by insurance can still pose a significant burden. Our Post-treatment Support program steps in to address these residual debts, ensuring that individuals can focus on recovery without the looming stress of unpaid bills. We work directly with patients and healthcare providers to identify outstanding amounts and provide the necessary financial assistance to clear these debts, helping patients move forward with their lives debt-free and with peace of mind.

At Wish Big Foundation, we understand that the fight doesn't end when medical treatment concludes. For many individuals and families, the journey after life-saving care can be just as overwhelming—especially when the burden of medical bills, daily expenses, and lost income begins to weigh heavily on the road to recovery.

Our Post-Treatment Financial Support Program is designed to provide financial relief to patients who have undergone critical or life-saving medical treatments and are now facing economic challenges. Whether someone has just finished chemotherapy, survived a major cardiac event, or endured a prolonged ICU stay, our support helps ease the transition from survival to stability.

Who We Help

This program serves individuals who have received life-saving or intensive medical care and are now struggling to manage the financial aftermath. We focus on patients who are:

  • No longer in the acute phase of treatment
  • Unable to work or earn a steady income due to their health status
  • Facing high out-of-pocket medical costs or related living expenses
  • At risk of financial crisis as a result of their medical journey

Examples of Qualifying Conditions

While we consider each case individually, some examples of diagnoses or medical events that may qualify for Post-Treatment Financial Support include:

  • Cancer Survivors (including breast, colon, leukemia, lymphoma, lung, and more) who have completed chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery
  • Cardiac Arrest or Open-Heart Surgery recovery patients
  • Stroke Survivors with ongoing therapy and rehabilitation needs
  • Organ Transplant Recipients dealing with long-term medication and follow-up costs
  • Sepsis or ICU Survivors recovering from multi-system trauma or extended hospitalization
  • Neurodegenerative Conditions like ALS or MS with a recent serious exacerbation or crisis

If a patient's condition required urgent, intensive, or life-sustaining care and has led to financial instability, they may be eligible for assistance through this program.

If you or a loved one has completed a life-saving treatment and are now overwhelmed by expenses, you are not alone. Recovery should be a time of hope—not hardship. The Post-Treatment Support Program is here to help you move forward with dignity, strength, and financial peace of mind.
