Pfizer Provides Free Drugs to Uninsured
Pfizer has announced that they will provide free prescription drugs to current customers who have lost their jobs and subsequently lost their health insurance coverage. More than 70 medicines will be available through this temporary program.
To be eligible, a person must have lost their in 2009 and started taking an eligible Pfizer medicine at least three months before losing their job. In addition, to be eligible, customers must also be without prescription drug benefits and must be able to attest to financial hardship.
Pfizer stands to gain, by gaining favor among their customers as well as increasing the likelyhood that these financially strapped customers will continue to take the perscriptions once they get their feet back on the ground.
Eligible participants will receive 12 months of free refills of the eligible perscriptions or until they obtain a replacement health insurance plan.
