I was on Forteo for 2 years and it was fully covered by financial assistance. My income is higher than I could ever imagine would allow for any assistance. My doctors office kept encouraging me to submit the paperwork. I delayed because I didn't believe it would do any good.

What size clinic do you go to? The clinic I go to is large enough that they have a full time financial assistance position. I've often wondered it that made a difference.

Thank you for your encouragement. I haven't yet applied, but I hope my outcome for assistance will be similar to yours. I'm a member of Kaiser Permanente, which is huge in California. If the MFA doesn't work out, I still have the fallback to the 2025 reduction in RX out of pocket, which will help. I haven't looked into the cost of needles yet, as per some of the above comments.
