Medicare And Biologics

Are there any folks on this group in the USA who are on Medicare and using a biologic such as Humira or Remicade? I'm interested in knowing how you manage the copay. These drugs are beyond expensive. Any good strategies for cutting the costs?

Try calling the company who makes your medicine, many company's are willing to give large discounts ! I can' t promise anything , but that is what I've heard. Good luck
