Common Questions and Answers about Depression treatment cost

depression

m meeting w/my GI doctor at the end of May to discuss the new drugs for beginning treatment and was wondering if the doctor will discuss treatment costs with me or do I need to find this kind of information out myself? If I don't have prescription coverage or co-pays will all expenses be out of pocket or will it be applied to my deductible? I don't have the greatest insurance and don't know what the new meds will cost yet. Any and all information is appreciated!

the speculation is these new meds will be at least double the cost of current treatment. and like everywhere It will remain to be seen what the insurance companies do .

I contacted my insurance company today to ask about the price of the meds for triple treatment. A 3 month supply of interferon, ribavirin, & Victrelis would cost $180.00 (so about $60 a month) I thought it was going to be a lot higher. But I forgot to ask about "rescue drugs". Not sure how that works and how much that would be. Any one have an idea?

Look up LA county health services, then look for no cost and low cost health care programs. They provide treatment and meds at low or no cost.

The difference between the full cost of a treatment (which the uninsured often are charged), and the amount the insurance company tells them they will pay is often quite a bit. If you have cash and offer to pay up front (for a discount) you may get charged less than what they can get out of the insurance company, because it's less hassle and instant money for them. Just a thought, even if you had to borrow the money. Will your Endo accept results from another facility?

They have Therapists and doctors there at a minimal cost or no cost based on your income. You may be internalizing some guilt about the night with your cousin. You did say that you thought these feelings started then. Perhaps there have been other things in your life going on as well that has you down. With everything you have said I really think it would help you so much to get some Therapy. Talking, being honest, open and getting things off your chest will really help.

There are non-profit counseling organizations and city/county run counselors who can help you for little or no cost to you. Try to look them up online to find one near you.
