Evenity Cost
I will start Evenity in January. It looks like I will use traditional Medicare, plan G Humana/medigap. Has anyone been on these plans and had Evenity paid for. It's very hard to get anyone, insurance or my doctor's office to quote what will be charged. Any suggestions?

What I have been told is the insurance companies want you to start with the less expensive drugs.
Your doctor should help you convince the insurance company why you need to take that medicine.
Contacted the company that makes Evenity.
Good luck!
There is an assistance program linked to the pharmaceutical company that makes Evenity. It may help pay for the drug, should you need it. It's called Amgen Safety Net Foundation.

@rjkesal123 I posted a similar question and received answers that I think will be helpful to you. Also, like you I have Original Medicare (Parts A and B) and Supplement G with a Medigap policy.

2 ReactionsThanks so much! Good luck to you.
Thank you!
Tufts tells me it will cost me $300 per month. Ouch.
Just found this chat group. I am not on Medicare and was able to get approved for the Amgen SupportPlus Co-Pay program. I have had 2 treatments so far and not paid a cent. My endocrinologist uses Providence Hospital for the treatments and they enrolled me in the program.

1 ReactionI am so grateful that you shared this with us. I didn't know about Amgen Support+ Co-pay Program. I went straight to the site and enrolled. My first injection is in 10 days.
Hi hopefullibrarian,
Have you received a bill yet from your provider or statement from your insurance?
Thanks, good luck.
Hi @ashash,
I got the EOB on Friday, and submitted it to Amgen yesterday. That was a very easy process. I just uploaded the EOB on my Amgen Support+ account. Now I just wait for them to add the money to the virtual card that they gave me.
