About This Medication

# Rezvoglar Patient Assistance Guide: Getting Your Insulin at Low Cost ## About This Guide Rezvoglar (insulin glargine-aglr) is a long-acting insulin used to manage Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. If you're struggling to afford this medication, this guide explains your options for financial assistance. ## Important Update: No Active Manufacturer Program Eli Lilly and Company does not currently operate an active patient assistance program (PAP) specifically for Rezvoglar. This means you cannot apply directly to the manufacturer for free or reduced-cost medication through a company-sponsored program. **However, you still have several ways to reduce your costs:** ## Your Cost-Reduction Options ### 1. Insurance Coverage Your first step should be to check your health insurance plan: - Contact your insurance company to confirm Rezvoglar is covered - Ask about your copay amount or coinsurance percentage - Request prior authorization if your plan requires it - Check if your plan has a preferred insulin tier (lower cost) ### 2. Biosimilar Alternative: Semglee Ask your doctor about **Semglee (insulin glargine-yfgn)**, a biosimilar version of insulin glargine. Biosimilars are lower-cost alternatives to brand-name biologics and work the same way in your body. Semglee may have: - Lower copays than Rezvoglar - Better insurance coverage - Its own manufacturer assistance programs Discuss with your healthcare provider whether switching is right for your diabetes management. ### 3. Pharmacy Discount Programs If you're uninsured or underinsured, use these programs at your pharmacy: - **GoodRx** – Compare prices at pharmacies near you - **SingleCare** – Offers discount codes for insulin - **RxSaver** – Free coupon app for prescriptions - **Walmart and Kroger** – Some locations offer $25/month insulin programs ### 4. Government Programs **Medicare Part D (age 65+):** - Insulin is covered under Medicare Part D - You pay a copay or coinsurance - Once you reach the catastrophic coverage stage, costs drop significantly **Medicaid (Low income):** - Eligibility varies by state - Covers insulin with minimal or no copays - Apply through your state's Medicaid office **Medicare Extra Help (Low income, age 65+):** - Helps pay Part D premiums and copays - Apply through Social Security ### 5. Manufacturer Coupons and Savings Cards While Eli Lilly does not offer a savings card for Rezvoglar specifically, check: - Your pharmacy's website for digital coupons - Manufacturer websites for limited-time offers - Ask your doctor for patient samples ## Income Requirements Since there is no active manufacturer PAP for Rezvoglar, traditional income limits do not apply. However, if you qualify for government programs like Medicaid or Medicare Extra Help, eligibility is based on: - **Federal Poverty Level (FPL):** Income thresholds vary by family size and state - **State-specific limits:** Medicaid income limits differ significantly Contact your local Medicaid office or visit **healthcare.gov** to check your eligibility. ## Documents You May Need If applying for government assistance programs, prepare: - **Valid prescription** from your doctor - **Proof of income** (recent tax return, pay stubs, or benefit statements) - **Proof of citizenship or legal residency** - **Insurance information** (if you have coverage) - **Photo ID** ## What to Do Now: 4-Step Action Plan **Step 1:** Call your insurance company and ask about Rezvoglar coverage and copay costs. **Step 2:** Talk to your doctor about Semglee as a lower-cost alternative. **Step 3:** Use pharmacy discount apps (GoodRx, SingleCare) to compare prices before filling your prescription. **Step 4:** If you're uninsured or low-income, apply for Medicaid or Medicare Extra Help at healthcare.gov or your state's benefits office. ## Timeline for Assistance - **Pharmacy discounts:** Immediate (minutes) - **Insurance approval:** 1-3 business days - **Medicare Extra Help:** 15-45 days - **Medicaid approval:** 7-45 days (varies by state) ## Need Help? - **Your pharmacy**: Ask about in-house discount programs - **Your doctor's office**: Request patient assistance resources - **Diabetes organizations**: Contact the American Diabetes Association for local resources - **211.org**: Free referral service for local assistance programs
