Patient Agreement & Consent
I promise that:
All of the information I provided in my application, and other documents or information that I may provide, are
complete and true.
If I am approved (enrolled), I agree that I will not be reimbursed for the free medicine from anyone else, including
a prescription insurance program or any other charity. If I have Medicare Part D, I will not count any free medicine
toward my true out-of-pocket costs (TrOOP).
If my insurance coverage or income changes in any way, I will immediately notify BMSPAF.
I give my permission to:
My insurance providers, healthcare providers, and others helping me apply to this program, to share information
about me with BMSPAF and the companies that BMSPAF uses to administer the program (Administrators).
My information that will be shared includes my personal information in my application,
as well as my health information and records, insurance information, and financial and income information.
BMSPAF and its Administrators to use my information, and share it with my healthcare providers, my insurance
company, and other organizations or companies that might be able to help me, so that BMSPAF and its
Administrators may: decide if I am eligible for the program, help me get the free medicine during my enrollment
(if I am eligible), and find out if I may be eligible for, or already enrolled in, another program (including a prescription
insurance plan or another charitable program).
BMSPAF and its Administrators to obtain a consumer report on me. My consumer report, and information derived
from public and other sources, will be used to estimate my income as part of the process to decide if I am eligible to
receive free medicine from BMSPAF. Upon request, BMSPAF will provide me the name and address of the consumer
reporting agency that provides the consumer report. I may call BMSPAF at 800-736-0003 for this information.
I understand that:
BMSPAF and its Administrators may contact me by phone or other methods to ask for additional information at any
time, even if I am enrolled, so that they can decide if the information on my application is complete and true.
BMSPAF and its Administrators may delay, deny, or end my enrollment if my application is missing information or
I do not respond to requests for documents or information.
If I am enrolled, BMSPAF will only give me free medicine for a short time and I will have to reapply before my
enrollment ends if I still need help with free medicine.
I may not be eligible for free medicine if I have insurance coverage that will pay for my medicine (other than eligible
patients covered under Medicare Part D).
I understand that once my information has been disclosed, privacy laws may no longer restrict its use or disclosure.
BMSPAF and its Administrators will share my information as described in this consent form or as required or
allowed by law.
I may refuse to sign this consent form and if I refuse, my eligibility for health plan benefits and treatment
by my healthcare providers will not change, but I will not have access to this program.
This consent will be effective for 18 months unless it expires earlier by law or I cancel it in writing. I may cancel this
consent at any time by writing to BMSPAF at the address in this application. If I cancel this consent, I will no longer
be eligible for the program and my enrollment will end.
I have a right to receive a copy of this form after I have signed it.
BMSPAF may change or stop the program at any time without notice.
