Kat's Skyrizi journey

[Kat]

It's very helpful for me to read about Kat's insurance information, especially that patient co-pay assistance for people using Medicare/Medicaid.  

I am crossing my fingers for you that you are accepted for their program to help people on Medicare.  It may just be an easy form-filling formality for their files.  I hope it goes quickly and that you can have this medication without selling the house for it.

Thanks Fred and yes, for Americans the insurance part is a big deal.

Forest, the application process so far has been quite simple. They gave me the information to log online to do the application. Most of the fields were already filled in (name, address, etc) and I really only had to fill in insurance information, a list of prescriptions I am taking and checking some privacy boxes, etc.

Oddly enough, no income questions. This is a new process for me so I don't know what comes next. The person I spoke with said they would get right on it so I guess I'll hear something soon.

I have a zoom appointment with the nurse tomorrow and will see if she has any information on what happens next.
