Schering-Plough Cares helps low-income patients who do not have commercial prescription drug insurance coverage. The program also helps low-income Medicare beneficiaries who have spent 3% of their household income out of pocket to purchase their prescription medications this year.
The program provides eligible patients with access to Schering-Plough allergy, asthma, dermatology and cardiovascular prescription products (our cancer and hepatitis drugs are available through the Commitment to Care program). Physicians, patients or their advocates can call the Patient Assistance Program toll free number or click on the link below for an application. The physician and patient then jointly complete the application and return it for review and approval. If approved, up to a three-month supply of the requested product is sent to the physician to be dispensed to the patient in need. In 2007, the program distributed pharmaceuticals free of charge to more than 60,000 patients.
To apply for the Schering-Plough Cares Patient Assistance Program, patients call toll free: 1-800-656-9485.

Hundreds of Schering-Plough U.S. colleagues volunteered as part of the 2007 Community Projects Day. Colleagues rolled up their sleeves to paint rooms, renovate landscaping, entertain the elderly, deliver meals to the homebound, sort clothing and food donations, read to young children and many other tasks.
