Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 I live in upstate NY and I switched my insurance from regular Medicare to MVP Gold. When I enrolled, I was told my Xolair injections would be covered and it would cost me $15 for office visit and $15 for serum. I just got a call from the curascript rep, and if I understood her correctly MVP will cover $237 and I have to pay $270 (or maybe I have them switched) until I reach the $4,000 limit. It's 5pm on a Friday and of course I can't reach anyone at the insurance so I told them not to send any serum - I wasn't authorizing anything. Is there anyone out there getting Xolair and they are on MVP gold and what is the arrangement and cost? Also, before I try and switch my insurance back to straight Medicare, can someone tell me simply what Medicare is covering this year - I hear its different than last year. I've had six injections and am due for my seventh, last year through Medicare it cost me $100.07 a month out of my pocket. My only income is $10,000 year Social Security Disability, I don't think I am going to be able to continue the injections if they are going to cost me over $200 a month.
