Each of the three mfgrs of interferon provide patient assistance programs for those that are uninsured, underinsured and for people that are declined by their carriers for one reason or another. This assistance is subject to approval based on your personal financial situation, and is generally income based, rather than asset based.

Call the following for applications:

Pegassist (Roche):
877-734-2797

Commitment to Care (Schering-Plough):
800-521-7157

Infergen:
888-696-8036

I hope this helps a bit,

Bill

You betcha. If some of the numbers are outdated, get back to us, or google them for new ones. I've had that list on file for a bit,
