Neuro putting me on Gilenya need help getting funds

[emily06]

Just back from my neuro. We are going to try to get me on Gilenya. All the others my insurance (Medicare) has denied so I had to hunt down financial assistance. Tecfidera just flat out gave me the drug but unfortunately I had bad reaction to it and had to stop. Then Aubagio which took over 6 months to get and finally found financial assistance which ended up being a financial nightmare.
Does anyone know of any assistance with Gilenya where they wouldn't charge my insurance (like Tecfidera didn't) and just use a company that supplies the drug for free.
and is there any assistance for the cost of the bloodwork and eye exam required to get on Gilenya too.
Thanks for any info.
Help!

Call the Gilenya Go program

My insurance wouldn't approve Gilenya. Through the Gilenya Go program, they give the drug to me at no cost. Not sure the income level you need to qualify but I did. Give them a call and hopefully they can help. Good luck!
