TIPS ON ENCOURAGING YOUR PHYSICIAN AND HIS/HER STAFF TO PARTICIPATE IN PAP’S
To ensure that your physician has completed the application and included any supplemental documents, we suggest that you provide your physician
with a stamped self-addressed envelope. By having your physician send the completed documents back to you, it will give you the opportunity to review the materials before sending them in to the pharmaceutical company.
To make the application process as easy as possible for your physician, it is best that you fill out all patient-specific portions of the application before presenting it to your physician to complete. The average amount of time that a physician spends on one application is about one minute.
If you are presenting numerous applications for your physician to fill out, you may consider offering a service fee for the time your physician and/or staff will spend in completing the application. A offer of $20.00 is a suggested amount. However most physicians are very willing to assist their patients in obtaining the medications necessary to support their health.
