I think that will depend on your insurance but I do not believe that is correct, Vertex has coupon on the Journavx site for i believe, $30 for a one month supply if you have Medicare, Medicaid or are a veteran. The moderator took down the link to the coupon but if you go to the Journavx website you will find it.. In addition someone on this thread suggested that insurance may cover this because of the legal issues around opioids. You may want to go back through the comments and take a look.
