Novartis sent me a letter stating that I was no longer eligible for PAP because I was eligible for medicare D. I was in a panic, but novartis has been helping me figure out which drug companies would be my best bet. I don't know if you will or have gotten a letter from PAP. But if you do Novartis will help you thru the process. they even said that if for some reason I still can't afford my Gleevec, that they also have programs. Novartis told me also that the companies with no deductibles for drug coverage does not have that doughnut hole( I call it the Money pit).I will continue to update you all as I find out more.
