Guest guest Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 Actemra does have a third party co-pay program similar to Orencia. It is a gap coverage and picks up about $300-$400 per IV infusion. I have had the first three infusions and I will begin the program on my next infusion. I received the information on obtaining my co-pay card by first contacting Roche Pharmaceuticals. So far Actemra has been the most helpful biologic I have received. Harry S. To: Stillsdisease From: SmoochRN@...
