Demystifying pharmaceutical patient assistance programs
Prescription drug costs impose a significant financial burden on the United States healthcare system. Patients with chronic dermatologic diseases often require long-term and expensive prescription drugs. In an effort to expand drug availability, pharmaceutical companies fund patient assistance programs (PAPs) to assist disadvantaged patients in gaining access to high-priced brand name medications with no suitable therapeutic alternative. Patients and clinical staff often face difficulty navigating the various PAPs. Herein, we seek to explore the utility, criteria, and challenges in PAPs and provide a practical discourse for dermatologists caring for medically indigent patients.
