Alnylam Patient Education Liaisons (PELs)*

PELs have backgrounds in nursing and are available to provide education to patients and their families throughout the treatment journey.

Support services include:

  • Providing pre- and post-treatment disease education
  • Answering questions about treatment
  • Hosting individual, family, or group meetings
  • Connecting patients to other resources and support

There are several ways for patients to connect with a PEL:

  • Patients can submit a PEL Consent Form
  • An Alnylam Case Manager can connect a patient with a PEL after a Start Form has been submitted
  • A patient can call Alnylam Assist at 1-833-256-2748 to be connected to a PEL upon request

*PELs are employees of Alnylam Pharmaceuticals and are not acting as healthcare providers. They do not provide medical care or advice. All diagnosis and treatment decisions should be made by the treating physician and their patients.
