MS LifeLines Access Made Simple
SOURCE: EMD Serono Pamphlet
What is MS LifeLines Access Made Simple program?
Because MS is challenging enough, we believe that getting on
therapy shouldn't be. So EMD Serono and Pfizer developed a
program called MS LifeLines Access Made Simple. This new
program can help you get affordable access to the therapy you
need, for up to 1 year of treatment. Your financial status
does not matter. Best of all, Ms LifeLines takes care of
the paperwork.
You may be eligible to get Rebif at no cost or for
no more than $50/month, for up to 1 year of treatment, if:
 you
have been newly prescribed Rebif therapy
OR
you
are restarting therapy after having previously
discontinued
 Rebif
for at least 90 days

My doctor told me that I will probably not need Rebif for
more than 1 year. What happens after I have
completed the MS LifeLines Access Made Simple program?
If you have no insurance of limited coverage, our
reimbursement specialists will research options to help cover
the cost of your treatment once the year is over. They
will be doing this during your last 3 months in the program to
help avoid any lapse in coverage. Our specialist are
trained and experienced in understanding the many state, federal
and pharmacy assistance programs that offer funding for people
living with MS. The goal is to help you stay on Rebif to
help delay the progression of your relapsing
MS.
If you are not adequately covered, the Reimbursement
Specialist will help you apply to the Rebif Patient Assistance
Program.
MS LifeLines can not guarantee that you will receive
insurance coverage or reimbursement for your therapy. But
the Reimbursement Specialist will do their very best to help
you.
What if I do not qualify for the MS LifeLines Access Made
Simple program?
MS LifeLines specialists can answer questions on topics
including enrollment, benefits, cost and prior authorization
requirements. They will also help you navigate the

still having financial difficulties, Reimbursement Specialist
will help you apply to the Rebif Patient Assistance program.
Eligibility is determined on a case-by -case basis.
