# CoverOne Patient Assistance Program Patient Guide: How to Get TEPMETKO (tepotinib) at Low or No Cost ## About TEPMETKO TEPMETKO (tepotinib) is a prescription medication used to treat certain types of non-small cell lung cancer. Because this medication can be expensive, EMD Serono offers the CoverOne Patient Assistance Program to help eligible patients access TEPMETKO at no charge when they meet specific criteria. ## Who Qualifies for This Program You may be eligible for the CoverOne Patient Assistance Program if you: - Are a U.S. resident or resident of Puerto Rico - Are uninsured or underinsured (meaning your insurance does not adequately cover TEPMETKO) - Meet the program's income eligibility requirements - Have a valid prescription for TEPMETKO from your healthcare provider - Are not currently covered by Medicare (though you may reapply after December 31st of the current calendar year) The program is designed specifically for patients without adequate insurance coverage. If you have commercial insurance that covers TEPMETKO, you may instead qualify for the CoverOne Co-Pay Assistance Program, which helps reduce your out-of-pocket costs up to $15,000 per calendar year. ## Income Eligibility While specific income thresholds are not publicly listed, the program requires that you demonstrate financial need. Income eligibility is determined on a case-by-case basis and considers your household income from all sources. | Income Consideration | Details | |---|---| | What counts as income | Before-tax wages, Social Security benefits, and any other household income sources | | Household size | The number of people in your household is factored into eligibility | | Documentation required | Most recent tax return (IRS Form 1040) or equivalent income documentation | | Review process | CoverOne staff will evaluate your specific financial situation | ## Insurance Requirements To qualify for the Patient Assistance Program, you must be: - **Uninsured** (no health insurance coverage), OR - **Underinsured** (have insurance that does not adequately cover TEPMETKO) If you have Medicare coverage, you are not eligible for this program during the current calendar year. However, your eligibility will automatically expire on December 31st, and you can submit a new application for the following year. If you have commercial insurance, contact CoverOne to learn about the Co-Pay Assistance Program instead. ## Step-by-Step Application Process **Step 1: Gather Required Documents** Before starting your application, collect the following: - Your most recent tax return (IRS Form 1040) or other proof of household income - Your prescription for TEPMETKO from your healthcare provider - Proof of residency (such as a utility bill or lease agreement) - Your contact information (phone, email, mailing address) **Step 2: Complete the CoverOne Enrollment Form** Your healthcare provider can help you complete the official CoverOne TEPMETKO Enrollment Form.
