Roche is a pioneer in providing our drugs, free, to patients who lack prescription coverage and the means to pay for the medications they need. In fact, the Roche Patient Assistance Program was one of the first in the industry, setting the standard for assisting patients in need since the early 1960's.

Since 2000, the Roche Patient Assistance Foundation has provided free Roche products to patients in need valued at more than $1 billion (based on Wholesale Acquisition Cost or list price).

Roche does not charge a co-payment and does not limit the time a patient may receive free drug.

To learn more about the Roche Patient Assistance Foundation and our individual product programs, call our toll-free number 1-877-75ROCHE (877-757-6243). To learn more about the extensive list of pharmaceutical industry-sponsored patient assistant programs, access www.pparx.org.
