What to try first, depending on your insurance

Help for Acromegaly depends mostly on how you're covered. Pick the one that sounds like you. We'll name the funds and programs that fit, and what won't work, so you don't waste a phone call.

I have insurance through work or a plan I bought

6 funds and programs name private insurance
  • Taking Mycapssa? Ask Chiesi Total Care about its copay card, which can lower what you pay each fill.
  • Taking Palsonify? Ask CrinetiCARE about its copay card, which can lower what you pay each fill.
  • You'll find 4 more drugmaker programs for you further down this page.
  • One fund for Acromegaly is only for people with government coverage such as Medicare, so it won't take private insurance.

I'm on Medicare

4 funds and programs name Medicare
  • Apply to the Acromegaly fund at TotalAssist. It was open on Oct 19 and pays up to $5,000 a year.
  • Taking Palsonify? CrinetiCARE may give it to you free if you qualify, usually based on income.
  • Taking Sandostatin? Novartis Patient Support may give it to you free if you qualify, usually based on income.
  • You'll find 1 more drugmaker program for you further down this page.
  • Drugmaker copay cards can't be used with Medicare. Federal rules bar them.

Before you pick up the phone

Most of these programs start with one call, and having these ready makes it shorter. Tick them off as you go. Nothing here is saved or sent anywhere.

Call the drugmaker's support line first. Its case managers check your benefits and often fill out forms with your doctor. If a charity fund is closed, sign up on the foundation's page to hear when it reopens. Most programs need renewing every year, and many copay cards reset in January.
