Is There Anyone Out There Who Has Been On Ibrance For 4 Years Or More?

Ibrance won’t give financial assistance if you are on Medicare. WTF?? I am assuming you are not on Medicare?

Open enrollment is here soon, so I am wondering if any supplemental policies cover it while on Medicare. My MIL is too overwhelmed with the whole process to do it.

My Florida Blue approves Ibrance yearly and covers it, leaving me to pay $30.00 a month. There is a place on the Ibrance website about getting help with cost but I am not sure how that works for Medicare. You should check it out.

Just tagging in so I can see the responses. My MIL just started Ibrance 6 months ago and it is working for her. She is on Medicare and insurance does not cover it, which is unbelievable to me. She’s in Florida as well with Humana as supplemental. How do you fund it?
