Reviewing my Cigna Medicare Part D summary I noticed a 2% price increase in Besremi. The total cost to my plan is now $16,970.69/2 doses. For others in the USA, you may see a different price due to how drug costs are negotiated by Pharmacy Benefit Management companies that contract with insurors.
I am quite fortunate that on my plan I have a $2,000/year cap on out-of-pocket expenses for medications. I have already passed that cap for this year. All meds come with a $0.00 copay for the rest of the year. Not everyone is so fortunate. Many simply cannot afford the copay for these more expensive medications. In other systems, expensive medications are not available or are very difficult to access. Despite how expensive it is, I consider myself very fortunate to have access to the insurance plan I am on.
Wishing all of you all the best as well as access to the treatment of your choice.
