@kjc48 I may be wrong but it is my understanding that if a drug is administered in a doctors office it falls under Medicare part B rather than part D

@laura1970 Thank you so much for sharing this as it's been on my mind, and the doctor's office told me to make sure I check with my prescription plan because the formulary changes. SHe said there are two facets to lequembe, the actual person who gets paid under Medicare to do the infusion, and then the actual medicine lequembe, which she said was under Part D. But I'm going to check it this week, with the neurologist's office who is doing the pre-authorizations for the lequembe. Thank you, sooooo much.

@laura1970 I want to thank you. I just pulled up the article on lequembe/Medicare and you are correct. It's covered under Part B Medicare and/or medicare advantage and a Gap plan the 20% remainder, or out of pocket for those with no Gap plan. Appreciate the info.
