What do you pay for remi?

Before Obamacare, I paid very little. This year, my financial responsibility increased so much that I applied for the Remistart program. My current insurance requires that I pay 10% of the cost which is $700 until I meet my deductible. Remistart covered it and my co-pay was $50. They have increased the yearly benefit from $8,000 to $10,000 and I believe decreased the co-pay to $5 for 2015.

I am in the remistart program so I pay $50 + the costs that are not directly related to the medicine. I pay this up to my out of pocket max. I think it ended up being about $100. I also have to meet my deductible but I met that way in the beginning of the year. Now I've hit the out of pocket max so I don't think I have to pay anything.

Nothing. My insurance covers it 100% in which I feel very grateful. Once in a while I get an itemized statement from my insurance company and it states that every infusion is about $6,500. It's crazy!

My insurance covers my treatments (and I hope it always remains that way). I don't even have to pay a co-pay as long as I get them at a local hospital infusion center. But when I get the itemized bill for my treatments they are usually billed between 16,000 and 17,000 which is INSANE!
