I checked on this for my sister and was told it is over 10,000 to get it. Could not afford that

Go to the ABBvie website. There is a page where they explain how they may br abe to help covervtge costs. I'm lucky to live in Germany where my insurance covers it. Meds for my pump alone costs 6000€ a month. I don't know what's required to get help. I kbow some companies in the US help with the sky'-high costs by treating these patientsa patients as part of their post- rollout testing followup research, but I don't knoe hiw those programs work, either.

It us very expensive. I'm an A
Merican bmbut I live in Germany. The mrds aline are About $6000 a month.My German health insurance pays 100% and 100% of everything, with a few exceptions. ABBvie does have a program to help cover costs. Check their website and see what they offer. In Germany, the insurance company will work with the pharmacy where I take the prescription to the pharmacy. They give me my meds abd send the bill directly to the insurance and the insurance co. pays the pharmacy for the meds. No fuss, no muss. The hospital sends bills directly to insurance. USA makes things i hope so much harder than it needs to be. I hope Abbvie can make a difference for you.
