Good evening @gravity3 and @chickyb. I was browsing this Connect subject and noticed the statement that you would not be able to use Medicare for the Forteo copay. That is also what I was told recently. When I pursued the reason, I was told that my medication was not on the Medicare formulary. My physician was able to get an exception ruling for me. This may be the issue or it may not but it is worth a try.

Take good care,
Chris

Thank you for responding, I was told it is a tier 5 which brought my out of pocket co-pay to 1,312.00 monthly, Medicare would pay the rest. I was offered to apply thru my insurance (Medicare advantage plan) a request to bring it down to a tier 4 which would lessen my co-pay of 1,312.00 by 2%. I’m still hoping to find some type of assistance
