Cancer Financial Resources
Patient Navigators:
Patient Navigators are trained oncology nurses who act as guides during the course of your cancer experience. They are experienced in finding local, regional, and national resources for financial assistance. Additionally, navigators can provide support and information to individuals and families affected by cancer. The navigators are ready to assist you with your cancer related needs-you can access by calling 970-297-6165 or by sending an email to pvhspnp@pvhs.org. This service of Poudre Valley Hospital is offered without charge to cancer patients and their families.

Front Range Cancer Specialists Fund (FRCS Fund)
The FRCS Fund became available in mid-2007 through very generous donations from a former patient’s family. The funds are available to help patients with financial hardships they may encounter during their treatment. The funds may help to pay for scans, tests, etc., which may not be covered by the patient’s insurance, or if the patient does not have insurance. FRCS works jointly with the PVHS Foundation to maintain the funds. If you have a need, or would kindly like to make a donation, please contact our office at (970) 212-7601.
The staff at Front Range Cancer Specialists can also assist you with pharmaceutical (drug) assistance programs. Additional financial resources may be found under "Web Resources".
