I had heard about this before but brushed it off thinking I would not meet the requirements but turns out I do. My infusion nurse sent in my application when I got remicade the first week of Jan. I just got the card in the mail. I'm going to call tomorrow but now I'm worried that bc I enrolled and got my remi the same day I wont get it. Anyone else do this? I have a $6k deductible so it would be huge for me!

First, the Janssen people on the hotline are super helpful, call and ask if you have any questions on what is/is not covered. I'm willing to bet they will cover it, as they use your insurance's Explanation Of Benefits (EOB) as proof, and that's issued about a month after ypur infusion. Jansen can add funds to your card, which you use to pay the medical bill. Aternatively, Jansen can write you a reimbursement check, if you already paid.

Remistart is great, I used it for a number of years. Saved me a lot.

Almost same, my deductible was $2500 and the Remicade program paid for everything. They send you a credit card in the mail with all your information and I give it to the nurse and pays my deductible. It’s amazing.

Thank you! I reached out and they retroactively go back 120 days! It still seems to good to be true BUT I am very hopeful.
