Pfizer - How we help
 
 
Pfizer's community initiatives in Malaysia:
 
  The Pfizer-IJN Heart Fund
 
    The Pfizer Malaysia-IJN Foundation Patient Assistance Programme is a partnership between Pfizer Malaysia and the IJN Foundation with an objective to help needy heart patients seeking treatment at the Institut Jantung Negara.

Every year, RM200,000 is contributed to finance Intensive Care Unit (ICU), drug and food costs, surgical fees, post-operation visits and, if required, angiograms. In addition to bearing surgery costs, Pfizer also absorbs the cost of drugs prescribed to patients for a period of two months after their surgery.

Beneficiaries of the Pfizer Fund are Malaysian adult patients of IJN who qualify based on criteria outlined by IJN in relation to medical conditions and financial status. Surgeries covered by the fund are Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG), valve surgeries and angioplasty procedures.
