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.
