Support Groups

Insights has created a number of informative materials that help to educate, inspire, and aid patients who are living with PAH. Insights materials can be easily incorporated into your current patient education program to supplement your efforts.

We are pleased to launch a new Speaker Bureau for patient support groups which will be known as the "Gilead Patient Support Group (PSG) Speaker Program." This program will provide the opportunity for patients and caregivers to connect in the support group setting with medical professionals who are experts in the treatment and management of PAH.

Support groups provide patients and caregivers a forum to connect, share experiences, and learn more about living with PAH. This PSG Speaker Bureau will offer support groups the opportunity to have a medical expert speak at their meetings on content that has been developed by medical experts, patients, and the PHA.

The first Speaker Kit, titled "Insights on PAH", is now available. Below, you can view a sample of the patient materials that are included as part of the Kit.

If you are interested in receiving a copy of the "Insights on PAH" Speaker Kit, or to request a PSG speaker for your next support group, please contact a Gilead representative.

Below, you'll find some examples of the materials we offer for support groups.
