Medicare pays for anti-rejection medication for 36 months, trust me I've been Medicare since 1995 but I've 4 kidney transplants and so in my caes that doesn't apply....but it haa always been 36 months until they change it, NKF has been trying to get changed for several years now.

@ca426 Charlie, so after Medicare B stops paying does Medicare D pay well or do they only pay a small amount? I know that often depends on whether or not the drug is a generic or not and I think my immunosuppressant is, unfortunately, not a generic but I'm not sure.
As I have mentioned, Medicare D did pick up some of the cost of my xifaxan but not all, we still had to pay between &700 and $800 a month.
