Does anyone know if there is a new apriso savings card for 2016?

Did you look here www.aprisorx.com/apriso/savings-card

I notice many need to be renewed at the beginning of a new year.

I had the lialda savings card, and they mailed me a new one before January 1st of each year. If you haven't got yours yet, you might have to re-enroll. I'd call apriso, or fill the form out again on their website. Does your gastroenterologist have any apriso cards in his/her office? I initially got mine at the office, might be worth a call.

I also noticed that they didn't update the card for 2016. Haven't tried to purchase yet this year. Hoping the 2015 card still works.

Does the Apriso card have an expiration date printed on the card? Lialda ones did.

I just called the hotline for Apriso. They extended the program through the end of 2016. New card not needed.

For a supply of 61 or more days, they provide a "maximum discount of $300 to try to bring the co-pay down to $30". For less than 61 days, the max discount is $200.

I am on a high-deductible plan so, at the beginning of the year, it's all out of pocket until I hit my deductible. So, my 90-day supply still came out to $161.

Question: If I could get my doctor to prescribe a 62-day supply, do you think I could get the $300 discount? That should bring my per-day cost down from $161/90.

Think that could work?

I never knew this existed! I am on Apriso also - 4/day so even though the bottles I get from Express scripts are huge, I go through them fairly quickly.
I can only afford to order one bottle at a time, and try to time it so I have a 2-3 day overlap when I receive the new bottle.
Will look into this to see if it can save me any $$$!
