It provides antibodies to help fight infections and manage autoimmune or inflammatory conditions approved by the FDA, such as PI, MMN, and CIDP. Administered by a healthcare provider in a vein, it supports patients whose immune systems need extra protection or modulation. Always confirm with your doctor if it's prescribed for an FDA-approved indication.[1][2][3][8] This guide explains how **Takeda Patient Support**—run by Baxalta Incorporated, a Takeda company—can cover up to **100% of your co-pay costs**, making treatment more affordable.

Ask your healthcare provider to verify.[1][2][3] - **Insurance**: Commercial insurance only, including Marketplace plans. **Excludes** Medicare, Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, TRICARE, VA, or other government-funded programs. Federal Employees Health Benefit (FEHB) may qualify as non-government.[1][2][3] - **Other rules**: Cannot use if insurance covers 100% of costs, if you're in Medicare Part D coverage gap, or enrolled in certain co-pay maximizer programs (Takeda may adjust benefits).[1][2][3] Uninsured or government-insured patients: Support specialists can guide you to other options, like third-party programs.[1][7] ## Income Eligibility This program does **not** use income thresholds or Federal Poverty Level (FPL) limits.
