@sueinmn It’s also worth trying the drug company. Many of them have programs, grants, etc, to help patients. When I first went on biologics, the insurance company wouldn’t pay the $28K/dose price. (And I needed 4 doses a year) The oncologist called the company and they finally agreed that their foundation would cover the cost. Thank heavens because I don’t know what I would have done!
@doloridicorpo65 , please try reaching out to the company. Tell them that their drug is a lifesaver! Will you try that?

Yes, definitely contact the manufacturer or your med. There are lots of organizations that will help cover what insurance and medicare don't. Right now one has been helping with my Remicade and just got help with eye drops from prevent blindness. It is so worth checking into.
