1. Your doctor prescribes Ventavis by completing enrollment forms: The process starts when your doctor's office faxes your Ventavis enrollment form to PAH Pathways.

2. PAH Pathways contacts you: Once we receive your Ventavis enrollment form, PAH Pathways will:

• Contact you to discuss starting Ventavis and answer any questions you may have
• • Forward your information to an in-network specialty pharmacy, who will discuss insurance coverage with you, and deliver Ventavis directly and conveniently to your home
• Mail you a Ventavis welcome packet
• Help you get started in Sure Steps™, a patient education and support program offered by PAH Pathways at no cost to you. Sure Steps provides you with educational materials, online tools, and nurse counselors to answer your questions about PAH and Actelion PAH therapies.

3. Specialty pharmacy coordinates your insurance coverage: Ventavis is not available in your retail pharmacy; rather, it is carried by a network of specialty pharmacies. Once your information has been sent to a specialty pharmacy, the pharmacy will:

• Obtain insurance approval and determine your benefit status for Ventavis and I-neb AAD System
• Notify you of your out-of-pocket expenses
• Provide information on financial assistance, if needed

4. You receive Ventavis and device training: Your specialty pharmacy ships Ventavis and the I-neb AAD System directly to your home. Your specialty pharmacy also schedules a training session for you so that you can understand how and when to take Ventavis. By using long and slow breaths, many patients have decreased their treatment times. A nurse educator conducts a training session, which can take place at your home or in a location that's convenient for you.

Know that if at any time you have a problem with your I-neb AAD System (for example, your I-neb AAD System is not working), you can call your specialty pharmacy's 24-hour emergency service number.

5. You receive ongoing support: Know that after you've started on therapy, you can contact PAH Pathways with questions or concerns about the delivery of your medicine, insurance coverage, or financial assistance programs if you are eligible.

You can also call PAH Pathways, Monday through Friday, 9 AM-8 PM (ET)/6 AM-5 PM (PT), with questions about any of these steps: 1-866-ACTELION (228-3546).
