The Presidio Brewster County Indigent Health Care Program is now Big Bend Health. BBRHD has consolidated all of its assistance programs under one name to better serve district residents.

The Prescription Assistance Program of Big Bend Health provides coverage for medications for eligible residents of Brewster or Presidio County that have Medicare medical coverage, but no coverage for medications (Part D). 

  • For low-income and low-resource county residents
  • Annual benefit of $5,000 in medications with a $5.00 co-pay per medication
  • Must meet income and resources eligibility requirements

You must be a resident of Brewster or Presidio County to be eligible for our programs and be categorically ineligible for Medicaid. All of our programs have income and asset/resource limits and are generally designed for low- and mid-income residents. There are a number of exclusions and deductions that can apply for individuals, so there is no easy answer to determine eligibility—eligibility is always done on a case-by-case basis.

The only cost for Big Bend Health programs is a $5.00 co-pay for medications. All covered medical procedures or doctor visits are at no cost to the client.
