Frequently Asked Questions

How can I afford MS medication?

Start with your drug's manufacturer PAP (Genentech for Ocrevus, Novartis for Kesimpta, etc.). If you have insurance, use copay cards and check with foundations like PAN and HealthWell. Generic versions of Tecfidera and Gilenya offer lower-cost alternatives.

Does Medicare cover MS drugs?

Yes, Medicare Part B covers infused MS drugs (Ocrevus, Tysabri) and Part D covers oral and self-injected MS drugs. The main,000 annual out-of-pocket cap under the IRA helps limit total costs.

What MS drugs are available as generics?

Generic dimethyl fumarate (Tecfidera equivalent) and generic fingolimod (Gilenya equivalent) are available at significantly lower cost than their brand counterparts. Discuss generic options with your neurologist.
