Hey brothers just noticed that generic Abiraterone Acetate has been added as a choice on the Medicare website. While not yet a windfall price reduction its at least a step in the right direction! Best wishes to all for an awesome painfree week with zero hot flashes.

What price can we expect?
Would you mind telling me how to look that up on their site, thanks.
Follow the steps
Just for my first prescription not that much different in price. Almost $15,000 before Medicare and insurance.
I'm on Medicare and started the generic in January, the copay at my HMO was $1,200/month. Don't know what the branded Zytiga copay is from our pharmacy. My copay is supposed to be 33% of the cost to the HMO, don't know if the cost to HMO includes the Medicare portion or not.
