Date:11/6/2009

CHARLESTON, S.C., Nov. 6 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The 'Help is Here Express' bus tour will be stopping in South Carolina and Georgia throughout the week of November 9-13 at various cities in order to help uninsured and financially-struggling patients access information on programs that provide prescription medicines for free or nearly free.
