No, it was not covered by insurance. I believe the cost was around $240. It did not differ greatly from my DEXA results, except to show the bone quality was a bit worse than the DEXA showed. I like that there is no radiation with the REMS. I will repeat a year from then (Jan 2026) to help determine if my taking Tymlos is working. It’s just one more tool we can use.
