I have Medicare and the AARP Supplemental insurance and only pay my dues per month. And LLS takes care of those payments! Praise GOD!

I have Medicare and a Humana advantage plan. It costs me $50 a month for Revlimid. My suggestion is to make sure you have a good advantage plan.

I am on Medicare as well. The social worker at my doctors office found funding for me. I have been on Revlimid for 6 years now and have had it funded by different funding places. There’s the LLS Program, Healthwell foundation, and there are more. They usually give you a year with around 11,000.00. If you run out then they would find another foundation to help for another year or if you run out. I have always had this paid for. I have Priority Health for my advantage plan and this year they started once you reach the catastrophic stage and that happens with the first script and the rest of year you pay nothing.
