FAQs
 

Share to Inspire is a BMS program that offers people an opportunity to share their health journey and treatment experiences with us, and to inspire others facing similar challenges. Participants may have the opportunity to share their story and participate in BMS activities if opportunities arise.  

You may have the opportunity to share your story with others if opportunities arise. Types of activities include:

• Taking part in an interview with our Patient Experience Team.
• Sharing your health journey with BMS employees, patients, caregivers, and the general public.
• Providing feedback on educational or promotional materials, and/or being featured in these types of materials. 

Participation in BMS activities is voluntary, based on each person’s interest level, availability, and BMS program needs. 

Sign up here. Once you’ve submitted your contact information, a representative from our team will call you to learn a little more about you and your health journey.  

We are excited to learn why it’s important to you to share your story. 

• After you submit your form, you'll receive a call from our agency partner who will conduct an initial screening to ask:
  General background and demographic information
  What you would like to share about your condition or the BMS treatment you receive
  If you are taking part in a clinical trial and, if so, the name of the healthcare provider who referred you to the trial


• It is possible—although not guaranteed—that  we may ask you to participate in a 1-hour discussion to hear more about your health journey, experiences, and interests.
• If an opportunity arises to share your story further, we’ll contact you to see if you are interested in participating.

No, participating in BMS activities is voluntary.  We understand that you may be busy, experiencing health challenges, or just enjoying some down time!  

If you were invited to share your health journey with us during an interview, we may reach out to see if you’d like to participate in additional story-sharing projects as they arise.    

Unfortunately, we can’t guarantee your participation in an interview or BMS story-sharing activities. Any information you share with BMS will be kept confidential and won’t be shared with anyone other than BMS and BMS business partners or affiliates without your permission. 

If you change your mind about sharing your health experiences with BMS, please call 1-855-436-5866 (toll-free) and we will store your information in accordance with BMS policies.

If you are invited to share your story during an interview, our team will contact you to find a 1-hour time slot that works with your schedule.

For your convenience, all interviews are virtual.  We’ll share discussion details with you during scheduling.  

We’ll want to hear your full story, including symptoms, diagnosis, treatments, etc, so it may be helpful for you to jot down key details and timing before the discussion. 

Relax and be yourself! This is your time to share your story with us and we are privileged to hear it.

You can call us toll-free at 1-855-436-5866 for more information about the Share to Inspire program. A representative will connect you with other team members as needed.

Sharing your story with BMS is voluntary; BMS does not offer compensation for the 1-hour, virtual interview. After your interview, if an activity arises that we think may interest you, we’ll reach out. If you decide to participate, compensation will be provided for your time. Members of our engagement team will discuss activity logistics and compensation with you.  

If you are invited to participate in an interview, it will take approximately one hour. Beyond that there are no time requirements for the program. We will contact you if opportunities arise for you to continue sharing your story, and you can let us know then if you’d like to participate.  

If you are invited to participate in an initial 1-hour interview, it will not be anonymous. If an opportunity arises for you to continue sharing your story, a member of our engagement team will contact you. You can decide whether the project is a good fit for you based on your desire for anonymity.

Any information you share with BMS will be kept confidential and won’t be shared with anyone other than BMS and BMS business partners or affiliates without your permission. 

No, the information provided via the submission form will not be shared or sold to any third party.
