Helen, I also have Traditional Medicare and it covers the Evenity injections 100%.
When I got my first statement from Medicare, the charge was $5,000+!
Wow! I told the nurses this at the infusion center and they maintained a poker face. I surmised that they had heard this from other patients.
The nurses are wonderful at the infusion center, but I always felt that they were careful about what they said to me regarding the drug.
A couple of months ago, I ran into one of the nurses at the planetarium. She was there with her kids and I was there with my grandson. This seemed to change the dynamic. She became more human and I guess I did too. Now, our conversations about the drugs feel more real. 🙂

@susanfalcon52 I figured Evenity injections would be really expensive. It's good to know that you are seeing Evenity covered at 100% by Traditional Medicare.
The nurses at the infusion center where I go are wonderful. I asked a few questions about what they had seen with their patients and they told me that there are only a few people getting Evenity at this point. One nurse that I see every time is very friendly so I imagine she might tell me more if she has the information.
