Has anyone found a Medicare prescription drug plan yet that covers Gleevec without a large deductible and co-payment. We have been comparing various plans and most consider Gleevec as a Tier 4 drug and require a co-pay of 25% to 33% which would push the annual out of pocket costs for just Gleevec to as high as $15,000 a year (or even higher for those who are on high doses).
The only one we have found so far which does not have Gleevec in Tier 4 is Aetna. Has anyone had any experience with them and was it difficult to get them to certify Gleevec as a drug (it has to be approved by them). Rob ------------------------ Yahoo!
