Insulin Resources
Questions come up frequently regarding ways to offset the costs of insulins so we wanted to offer resources that can help.
Ok, let’s start with patients with no insurance. All insulin manufacturers offer free medication for the uninsured. To be eligible, family income must be <400% of the Federal Poverty for 2022.
Here are the patient assistance links where you can print out the forms.
For Novolog, Tresiba, Levemir, Fiasp users: CLICK HERE
For Basaglar and Humalog users: CLICK HERE
For Apidra, Lantus, and Toujeo users: CLICK HERE
Another great resource is www.needymeds.org where all drug patient assistance forms are available for download.
For folks with commercial insurance, the challenge is often meeting the deductible. For lower deductibles, use a savings card, which typically drops a copay to $25/month while applying a certain dollar amount to the deductible. For higher deductibles, the better options are the $99 programs which limit out-of-pocket spending to $99 for one or a combination of insulins. For Humalog users, Lilly offers a flat $35/month option. Novo Nordisk offers an immediate supply option (one-time per patient per year) where you can get a printable voucher for up to 3000 units of one or a combination of insulins for free, to cover in case of emergencies. Here are the links for those resources.
