My Medicare Part D approved ARAKAYCE with a copay of $77.00 (standard tier 3 copay). The specialty pharmacy then connected me with The Assistance Fund. They approved me immediately, and I paid $10.00/month. Be sure your doctor knows where to send the Rx. My ID doctor seemed very knowledgeable about it. My pulmonologist, on the other hand, has had repeated denials for a medication he is trying to prescribe for me.

Which Part D plan do you have?

Hi Robin (@robinzemp),
Thank you for this information. I contacted my insurance provider (Part D) and was told the difference in copay is because of the difference in Tier. Aetna
( my provider) considers Arikayce a Tier 4 drug. I am curious as which drug providers put Arikayce as a Tier 3. Please feel free to private message me if you have any additional information to share. Thanks so much.
