Dawn: When I was getting mine from Walmart Pharmacy, it was right around 2800$ to 2900$ for a 30 day supply. That was just about two years ago. I received a letter from Anthem B/C stating I was going to have to start mail ordering it from this place out of Indianapolis called Px Specialty Solutions or start paying a percentage out of my pocket. So, I called the Pharmacy people to begin mail ordering. The woman said, "maybe we can get you a 3-month's supply at a time". I thought, well that would be nice. Well, she called back later and said my insurance would not ok a 90 day supply. (no reason given) The first time I saw a price they included.....I told my husband it was much higher than what it was when I got it from Walmart, so I do not know why my insurance decided to do this. It made no sense to me then and it still doesn't after two years of mail order. I do have to say though, these people have been very good to me and helpful. And, so far Anthem has not balked at paying for the Gleevec. Course, my husband informed me what it's costing each month for my coverage. It's awful, but what does one do but pay it if they can. I did wonder though after seeing what you pay.....if they get a cheaper rate for 90 days supply verses 30 days? If so, one would think an insurance company would go that route in order to save money.
Thanks everyone.....it does bring up questions, doesn't it?
