Access to medicine is a cornerstone of Pfizer’s ongoing commitment to patients. For more than 30 years, Pfizer has been helping eligible U.S. patients in need get access to their medicines through a range of assistance programs.1 In 2019, Pfizer helped more than 214,000 patients receive over 1.3 million Pfizer prescriptions for free or at a savings.2
Beyond providing medicines to those in need, we understand that health inequality is a significant public health issue across the country. Lack of or limited access to quality health care is an issue that disproportionately affects multicultural communities. Through Pfizer’s Multicultural Center of Excellence, we focus on improving health equity across medically underserved populations in the U.S. by partnering with key multicultural groups whose mission is to ensure the patients they serve can access the health care they need and reduce health disparities. Through our partnership withDía de la Mujer Latina, we created avideo for the Hispanic patient population that explains Pfizer’s patient assistance program in a culturally relevant manner.
