A family of patient assistance programs
Today, it is estimated that nearly 46 million people in the United States are uninsured.
The advocacy group Families USA also reports that as many as 86.7 million Americans—a third
of the population under the age of 65—were without insurance at some point in the past 2 years.
As a result, many Americans may not have access to the medicines they need.
At Pfizer, we believe that patients in need who are prescribed a Pfizer medicine should have
access to that Pfizer medicine. That’s why we created Pfizer Helpful Answers. Pfizer
Helpful Answers is a family of programs offering eligible patients over 100 Pfizer
medicines for free or at a savings.
These programs can provide:
- Free Pfizer medicines to lower-income patients without prescription coverage
- Savings on Pfizer medicines, regardless of age or income
- A Hardship Exception for eligible patients with prescription coverage facing a significant financial hardship

In 2008 alone, Pfizer patient assistance programs helped nearly 1 million patients in the
United States obtain access to 6.5 million Pfizer prescriptions, valued at $890 million.
