Common Questions and Answers about Copaxone copay assistance
copaxone
They have copay assistance if you have insurance. They sent me a letter to reapply and the deadline for 2012 was December 5 2011. I am not sure if that deadline is for reapplying. You have to reapply every year. The Copay assistance is a separate arm of TEVA I believe not for profit. It is a limited amount per year of assistance. You send in your tax returns or pay stubs, etc. to show your income.
that's outrageous! I take copaxone and it costs me a $25 copay, thankfully. I don't feel very bad either, but I am keenly aware that now is the time to nip this in the bud before more lesions occur and then I don't feel so fine! Aetna should be ashamed!!
Yes, call Shared Solutions, I only pay $35.00 a month with their help.
if Rebif has been working you hate to make a change. There are very good patient assistance programs and like C wrote, they often bring the copay down to zero.
I believe Rebif and Copaxone are about to fall off the list of drugs eligible for us in the UK on the NHS... they didn't feel the efficacy of the drug was worth the cost. One of the injectables fell off our formulary last year too, I think it might have been betaseron would no longer be covered.
I'm on tecfidera and am on Biogen's copay assistance. I don't pay more than 10 for each refill. It was very very easy to join the copay assistance for me...
i went through Nord first and that took about 6 months before I heard anything on wether I would get any help then 6 more weeks before I received my first 3 month supply of copaxone. I now get assistance from a place in Fla. I hear from them within a month after I send in all of the info that they need. They call and talk to you instead of sending a letter. Shared Solutions helped with finding them when Nord stop with there assitance program.
I was reading the question that were posted about copaxone and I am currently on my husband insurance and my copay is $40.00 a month but they pay $5.00 and I only pay $35.00 a month. Well my situation is changing and I really need to find a way to pay for this medicine. I check with my insurance on my job and it will not cover this medicine. I need help. I read this other lady post and she said they told her she didnt qualify, that is what I am afraid of.
My copay is $100 a month but I applied for needs based copay assistance from the drug maker and they help me out. I realized it would be more expensive in the long run for me not to be on my DMD.
Try not to dwell on costs at the beginning. I freaked myself out so bad I decided it was better for my family if I did not treat my MS. If you had cancer you would find a way. We have just as much right to health care as anyone.
They are also in competing with all the other MS drug companies to keep your business.. Teva mostly does generics and breaks everyone else's patents. They own hundreds of generic drug companies around the world. The only patent medicines they do are high price MS and Cancer drugs. Copaxone took them over twenty years to get on the market. They tried it as a pill first and it did not work in the digestive system.
does anyone know of any copay assistance programs that would help with copayments .for my osteoarthritis?
