Here's the specific programs for your daughter's insulin. I think she has to submit the application through her doctor's office and the drugs are delivered to the doctor's office.
Here's Novo Nordisk -- for Novolog:

If she has no income or insurance, she should be able to get her insulin from the manufacturers. I'm pretty sure that Sanofi Aventis (maker of Lantus) participates, as well as Novo. You have to apply directly to each company that carries the drug you need.
Check and see if the strips manufacturers have programs. Some of them do. What type of meter does she use? If she can't find a program to provide the strips, everyone can use the FreeStyle Promise program. You have to sign up with them, but they give you a card you use at the pharmacy, that is run through the same way as insurance. I think the breakdown is that they take off $25 for 50 strips and $50 off for 100 strips or more. We switched from the Accu-Check Aviva to the FreeStyle Lite to save money on strips, since we have to pay for all Rx out of pocket until we reach our large deductible. We haven't shopped around to find the best price for strips, but since our pharmacy raised the price for 200 strips by $50, we should. If she's paying out of pocket for strips, she should shop around for the best prices.
Good luck. Diabetes is an expensive disease. I can't believe the price of supplies. I really don't think they should cost this much, but they have us over a barrel and they know that we have no choice but to buy the stuff.
Sorry, I have a complete course on ths subject> No Insurance with things to do, with alot of websites , but This Board Format won't allow them to be posted..
