It would seem to me that you should contact the company that makes the drug and see if they have a program for uninsured patients.

The company is supplying the drug but the patient will need to get infsion treatments in either a doctor's office or the hospital. There are facilities where he can have the treatments but we have been unable to find one that will give the treatments to a patient without insurance.
