Deskripsyon ng programa:
The NOA Program is an innovative shared-contribution access program
that helps underprivileged Filipino patients with cancer gain access to
effective treatment. It works on a principle of partnership in which
patients who have the capacity to contribute to the cost of their
treatment help Novartis sustain the free treatment of patients who have
no financial capability.
Novartis Healthcare Philippines helps Filipino patients enrolled in the
NOA program comply with treatment by donating the portion of the cost
of their full-year Imatinib/Nilotinib treatment that they cannot afford to
pay. To date, there are 1,400 active NOA patients in the Philippines
being treated by partner-physicians.
