How do I apply for GIPAP™?
To ensure only properly diagnosed patients are accepted into GIPAP, the qualified
physicians in each country in which GIPAP operates must first recommend and submit
an application on behalf of the patient. The physician must be involved in all stages
of the treatment (diagnosis, prescription and follow-through).
GIPAP registered physicians can find the GIPAP application by logging into the Patient
Assistance Tracking System (PATS) using their username and password. If you have
any difficulty, please contact The Max Foundation for
more information.
The completed application will be reviewed by The Max Foundation to determine if
the patient qualifies under the GIPAP eligibility criteria.
If the patient qualifies, supplies of Glivec will be issued to the patient’s GIPAP
registered physician at no cost by Novartis. To remain in the program, an eligibility
reevaluation must be filed with The Max Foundation.
