Stand with us
Our collaboration with coalitions, our alliance partner network, and other like-minded partner organizations ensures that our collective voice is stronger when we advocate for critical healthcare reform.
Coalitions and partners
We work with leading patient advocacy and support groups to advocate for policy solutions that improve healthcare access and affordability for patients. Our work educates key stakeholders, including Congress, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and the administration, about the impact and urgency of healthcare reform.
Alliance for Connected Care
The Alliance for Connected Care is dedicated to improving access to care through the reduction of policy, legal, and regulatory barriers to the adoption of telemedicine and remote patient monitoring. The Alliance works in partnership with an advisory board made up of a distinguished group of patient and provider advocacy organizations who wish to better utilize the opportunities created by telehealth.
All Copays Count Coalition
The All Copays Count Coalition includes more than 60 organizations serving the interests of people with complex and chronic health conditions who rely on copay assistance to afford life-saving medications. A key focus of the coalition is removing barriers to care caused by copay accumulator policies.
Global Genes
Global Genes provides hope for the more than 400 million people affected by rare disease around the globe. They help patients find and build communities, gain access to information and resources, connect to researchers, clinicians, industry, government, and other stakeholders, share data and experiences, stand up, stand out, and become effective advocates on their own behalf.
Medicare Access for Patients Rx
Medicare Access for Patients Rx (MAPRx) is a coalition of organizations representing patients, family caregivers, and health professionals. They are committed to safeguarding the well-being of patients with chronic diseases and disabilities who rely on prescription drug coverage through Medicare Part D.

National Minority Health Association
The National Minority Health Association (NMHA), a not-for-profit organization founded in 1988, achieved its initial mission of ensuring the establishment of Offices of Minority Health in all 50 states. Today the NMHA is deploying Operation Healthy You™ (OHY), a program that identifies areas of healthcare disparity and works with healthcare providers and community resources to address identified needs. The program is intended to lower the long-term overall cost of healthcare and improve outcomes for minority and underserved communities.
National Rural Health Association
The National Rural Health Association (NRHA) is a national nonprofit membership organization with more than 21,000 members.

The Partnership for Part D Access is a collection of healthcare stakeholders, including patient groups, advocacy organizations and allied members of industry, who are committed to maintaining beneficiary access to the full range of available medications under Medicare Part D. The Partnership represents and cares about individuals who would be negatively impacted by changes to Medicare’s “protected classes” policy.
Rare Disease Diversity Coalition
Launched in 2020 by The Black Women’s Health Imperative, RDDC is a partnership of the nation’s leading rare disease experts, patient and provider organizations, and health equity advocates working to address the extraordinary challenges faced by historically underserved populations with a rare disease. Through research, advocacy, and collaboration, RDDC aims to advance evidence-based solutions to achieve greater equality within the rare disease community.
Alliance partners
People with serious health conditions—and their families and caregivers—need support beyond financial assistance.
We partner with national patient advocacy organizations that offer help with the complex physical, emotional, and practical realities of life-threatening, chronic, and rare diseases. When patients come to the PAN Foundation for financial assistance related to a specific disease state, they can opt in to receive follow-up education and support services from a dedicated alliance partner.
We also work with our alliance partner network on shared advocacy goals, bringing a cohesive and compelling voice to the affordability challenges faced by patients.
Healthy People 2030 Champion Program
