1. Determine Eligibility:
Patients should first ensure they meet the basic eligibility criteria for the program. Generally, this includes being a legal resident of the United States, having no prescription insurance coverage, or having insufficient prescription coverage for Vascepa. Additionally, patients must have a valid prescription for Vascepa from a licensed healthcare provider and meet certain income guidelines.
2. Gather Required Documentation:
Patients will need to provide supporting documentation as part of the application process. This typically includes:
- Proof of income (such as recent tax returns, pay stubs, or a letter from your employer)
- Proof of residency (such as a driver's license, utility bill, or rental agreement)
- A valid prescription for Vascepa from a licensed healthcare provider
- A completed application form (available on the Amarin Pharma, Inc. website or through the patient assistance program)
3. Submit the Application:
Once all required documentation has been gathered, patients can submit their application to the Vascepa Patient Assistance Program. This can typically be done online, by mail, or by fax. Patients should ensure they have made copies of all submitted documents for their records.
4. Follow Up:
After submitting the application, patients should allow adequate time for processing. It is essential to follow up on the application status if they haven't received a response within the designated time frame. Patients can usually check their application status online or by contacting the Vascepa Patient Assistance Program directly.
