Psychotropic Brand-name Medication Patient Assistance Programs (PAPs)
The following
information sheet provides the most current information to assist in
completing PAP applications as well as obtaining PAP psychotropic
medication. Where applicable, it provides contact information, phone
numbers, fax numbers and mailing addresses. In addition, one may find
eligibility periods, required additional documentation, as well as time
line requirements to obtain more medication and/or extend the PAP for
the client.
On a monthly basis, potential clients are identified through our PBM,
and applications are initiated. With the cooperation of the client,
caseworker and psychiatrists at 12 BHCS clinics, the application is
completed and submitted. If approved, the Drug Company will deliver a
supply of medication for the client, ranging from 1-3 months.
