Patient Education Programs
Lilly contracts with credentialed educators to help inform patients and their caregivers on the proper use of certain Lilly medications, such as those used with injection devices, which have been prescribed to the patients. Educators may also provide disease state and medication administration education to prescribing healthcare professionals and their office staff. All patient education is provided only upon referral by the prescribing healthcare professional. |
