Guest guest Posted March 6, 2002 Report Share Posted March 6, 2002 I really liked the Be In Charge program they helped me a lot. I'm sure you will find some different opinions, but in my book they were wonderful, they called me once a month, and were able to give me answers to even the most stupid questions.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2002 Report Share Posted March 6, 2002 > Does anyone have any opinions on the Be-in-Charge program? Is it > good, bad, useful, waste of time? You have to qualify first? Dave sign into the group and go to messages , then do a search for Be- in-Charge. We went thru this about 4 months ago so there are lots for and against the program. I for one just got thru my 48 weeks of combo in Dec, and was on the program for the full time , got a call every few months and they were no real help to me.the one thing that gets me is they will never leave a message , even to your wife when they call, because they say it might embarass you. What is more embarassing then having a gal call you at home and not leave a name or reasion for the call? They don't want anyone to know your on the program but will send you a water jug and towel with the logo on them. As far as I see it, it is just a way to keep the goverment off their backs for the unreal price they but on the TX. Combo at 1600+ per month was bad but Peg at 2900+ is off the wall.And now they have their waiting list just another way to jack the price up. others have had better results with them but not me. rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2002 Report Share Posted March 7, 2002 Rich, I did a search like you said but I only came up with two older posts with " Be-in-Charge " in them. Maybe some posts were deleted? That's funny what you said about the people who call to check up on you. Are they careful not to say who they are because you might be trying to keep your treatment a secret? Seems like that would be very hard to do. Can Schering afford to be giving away these free water jugs and towels? Isn't their peg-combo the must expensive outpatient medication ever made? It has to be more than HIV meds isn't it? I'm just waiting for that phone call saying that I've kicked off my HMO plan because I cost them too much money! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
