We are interested in how many of the biologics intended for psoriatic arthritis have a bio similar product and which part D plans cover them and how much is copay on bio similar.

One story I read recently mentioned how Medicare often refuses to pay for biologic shots, but if the doctor makes it for infusions it is often covered under Medicare. Maybe it's worth a try. Blessings to you.
