Medicare B coverage of Evenity
Osteoporosis & Bone Health | Last Active: Jul 20 7:31am | Replies (97)Comment receiving replies
My numbers were better after one year of Prolia but I had dental work so I quit it and my doc put me on Evista for 2 years. My latest scan had much worse numbers. Now she wants to put me on Evenity starting after I turn 65 in August. She told me to research Medicare supplements so I can afford it.
I can't seem to get anywhere looking on my own in a confusing maze of companies and policies.
Can anyone tell me exactly which supplemental plans cover most of the cost? Or is it true that Part B will do it? I'm otherwise very healthy and am in NC if that makes a difference.

@bonesmcgee , I have AARP medicare advantage. I was told Eventity would only cost a $20 copay. I am being billed $844 a month!! I am appealing and still fighting with my insurance!

bones,
Yes, Part B does cover Evenity. It has to be administered in a doctor’s office or an infusion center.
I have traditional Medicare with a supplement (I have AARP which is United healthcare). I’m sure that whatever Part B plan you choose will cover it. I would certainly ask.
The cost of Evenity is shocking. I see it quarterly when I receive my EOB from Medicare. Each dose is well over $5000.
