Most companies will not cover a person with pre-existing conditions.

If you have lost your coverage due to a job change, the law now

says that if your new employer provides coverage, pre existing

condieions are waved.

I believe that Xolair's makers, Norvatis and Genetech have a program

for people who do not have insurance.

Can the member who posted this several months ago please give us more

Genentech has a program called SPOC to help people offset the high costs of

prescriptions if their insurance company doesn't cover the medication or

provides assistance if a person does not have insurance. They will also help

you with the appeals process if your insurance company denies the claim. Good

luck!

Two quick suggestions

1. The nurse or accountant at her doctor's office should have some ideas for

help. Mine came after the doctor had sent in the prescription to the pharmacy.

The pharmacy called me and then put me in touch with someone who could advise me

on some help. This was before Medicare agreed to pick up the additional cost as

my insurance would only pay 1/2. However, my insurance now pays 80 and Medicare

pays 20.

2. SPOC was the organization (?) who called me. One number is

1-800-240-1224. Another number that I found on the xolair information brochure

is:1-800-704-6610 or www.spoconline.com.

Hope she can get some help from somewhere.
