Why does it take me to my profile each time I create a request?
It is very important that we have a complete and accurate profile on all treating physicians that are requesting compassionate use medications for their patients. The system is designed to return you to your profile to assure that the information is complete and to encourage you to verify that your contact and medical license information are up to date.
Can I expedite my request if the situation is an emergency?
There is no specific “expedite” feature in the application. However, you will have the opportunity to enter this additional information on your request form.
How long will it take for someone from ViiV to contact me?
You will receive a notification that ViiV has received your request within 24 hours after you submit. Please make sure you check your “spam” folder. The email will be sent from a “no-reply@idea-point.com” email address.
The ViiV Contact assigned to this request will be in contact within 5 business days. If the request, in the additional information section, indicates an emergency then the ViiV contact will try to be in contact more quickly.
What is the overall process for a Compassionate Use request?
The process starts when the request is submitted by the treating physician. Once ViiV receives the request they will contact the treating physician to confirm information about the current situation and gather any required additional information. Once ViiV has contacted the treating physician and ensured that necessary information is available they will normally make a decision on the request within a week.
