Forum Update: Supporting Community-Led Discussion
The forum was created as a space for shared learning and peer support, and as the community grows, we want to lean more fully into that purpose.
Going forward, PAAB will be taking a more listening-first role in forum discussions. Rather than responding immediately to every question, we’ll be encouraging members to engage with one another, share experiences, and help build collective understanding. PAAB will continue to monitor conversations and will step in to:
- Correct any misunderstandings
- Provide guidance when questions remain unanswered after a few days
- Support discussions where official clarification is needed
Our goal is to foster a collaborative, trusted community where knowledge is shared and strengthened by everyone’s contributions.
Thank you for being part of the conversation.
FB on PSP Enrolment Forms

How come patient support program enrolment forms do not require the indication / low-level fair balance? They usually link the drug to the therapeutic use in a "diagnosis" section.
Hello @kshulist
Enrolling a patient in a support program means that the decision to prescribe the product has already been made (i.e. patient is on the drug). Additionally, given the type of information on the form (e.g., including dosing or monitoring info), the form is not considered promotional but rather administrative in nature. Given these two reasons, indication/FB is typically not required. However, should promotional messaging be added (in the context of an HCP completed PSP enrolment form), indication and fair balance would indeed be required. For a patient completed enrolment form, no promotional messages would be acceptable and therefore the form would be administrative.
