What to try first, depending on your insurance

Help for Focal Epilepsy 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

3 funds and programs name private insurance
  • Taking Briviact? Ask BRIVIACT Patient Savings Card / UCB Patient Assistance Program about its copay card, which can lower what you pay each fill.
  • Taking Fycompa? Ask FYCOMPA Instant Savings Card Program and FYCOMPA Patient Assistance Program about its copay card, which can lower what you pay each fill.
  • You'll find 1 more drugmaker program for you further down this page.

I'm on Medicare

1 fund or program names Medicare
  • Taking Lamictal? GSK Patient Assistance Program may give it to you free if you qualify, usually based on income.
  • Drugmaker copay cards can't be used with Medicare. Federal rules bar them.
  • Medicare Part D caps what you pay for covered drugs at $2,100 a year in 2026.

Medicaid or CHIP covers me or my child

Nothing published names this yet
  • We didn't find a fund or drugmaker program for Focal Epilepsy that names your situation. Call the drugmaker's support line anyway. Case managers often know options that aren't published.
  • Drugmaker copay cards can't be used with Medicaid or CHIP. 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.
