[CMLHope] price of gleevec,insurance,obamacare
Thank you all for the questions and answers. It just goes to show us that we have a situation that is very expensive to stay alive. Insurance is our only outlet, and from Marty's experience we have to be very careful what insurance and type of policy we are looking for. I have noticed though that the price of gleevec varies quite a lot, depending on which state we reside in and what insurane is available to us. Right now i have a PPO under MVP insurance. My deductible is $5000. plus $300. a month. The gleevec we are getting, { 60 tabs a month}, my wife is only on 200 mg a day,is coming in at $3269.94 per month.Other folks i have noticed are paying a much higher price because of their monthly dose,or maybe what insurance they carry. Now that our President has 4 more years, we can only hope that Obamacare has good answers for us,as Suzieq mentioned.

Re: [CMLHope] price
hi from Greece gleevec of 400mgx30 days costs about 2.760 euro (my salary is 1.100 euro per month) but i don't pay any money for it because in Greece we have a system of " public health " wich provide us (all the people that they are "chronically ill" like cancer patients) with these medecine so although Greece is the "black sheep" of world economy the cancer patients can have hope for their life. for the time being!! best wishes christina 2012/9/27 robert goodrich > no, im talking about gleevec, my wife nancy was dx in jan.of 2000. > back then we only paid $2700. a month. every year it creeps up more and > more, > but she is only on 200mg a day. thats probably why, less mg, less $$. > rob > >*From:* Pat Elliott > *To:* cmlhope@googlegroups.com > *Sent:* Thursday, September 27, 2012 10:54 AM > *Subject:* RE: [CMLHope] price > > Gleevec. 400 mg x 30.

Re: [CMLHope] Price of Gleevec keeps going up
Hi Suzieq, The last time I reordered my Gleevec the lady from my mail in plan told me that it was over $10,000 for my 90 day supply. That's a better price than what you are paying. That makes one wonder who is screwing who here! You would think the price from Novartis would be the same for all customers!

Hi Suzieq, Good to hear from you. I know it was $4500.00 a month at Walgreens but I didn't know it went up that much. I have noticed postings about putting a bar of soap at the end of the bed for leg cramps, well I tried it the first of this month. I placed a bar of dial at the end of the bed and I have NOT had a leg cramp all month. Unreal, it worked for me.
