anti viral therapy

[Guest guest]

Hello-

I'd like to know how other centers are handling anti viral therapy?

Is Valcyte being used?

I know that Valcyte is covered under Part D, but with a 25% or a 33% copay,

and coverage gap applies.

Patients struggle w/these costs continuously.

I am aware of the Roche PAP for Valcyte, but I was wondering what can be

done for those patients that do not qualify for this program?

Do other programs use any other anti viral therapy that would not be as

expensive for the patients?

Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks

Donovan
