Kesimpta is my 4th DMT. It is also very expensive, as they all are so Patient Assistance is required. Firstly, my new Neuro was surprised at the ease of his part in requesting this med, he has only prescribed it for a few patients.
For previous DMT's, I've had to compile my medical history, my financial history, coordinate with the paperwork the Dr's office had to compile, jump through hoops, and sacrifices may or may not have happened.
With Kesimpta all I had to do was answer the phone. They sought pre-approval from the insurance and when I said I couldn't afford the monthly deductible they said no problem they would apply for Patient Assistance for me. I had to do nothing. 2 days later I get a call saying I was approved and they wanted to schedule my first med shipment.
Within a week of seeing my Neuro who started the ball rolling I was doing my first injection. I'm overwhelmed by the ease of it all.
