The program, which applies regardless of prior family income, will be open for enrollment through December 31, 2009 and applies to eligible Americans who have become unemployed since January 1, 2009. It is designed to help recently unemployed Americans and their families who have lost their insurance and who are taking Pfizer medicines to continue treatment for free for up to one year. Nearly 46 million Americans lack health insurance coverage, and that number is increasing as unemployment rates reach their highest levels in 25 years.
Eligibility requirements of the new program include:
* Loss of employment since January 1, 2009
* Prescribed and taking a Pfizer medicine for at least 3 months prior to becoming unemployed and enrolling in the program
* Lack of prescription drug coverage
* Can attest to financial hardship
People who qualify will receive their Pfizer medicines for free for up to 12 months or until they become re-insured (whichever comes first). More than 70 Pfizer primary care medicines will be available through the program.
