I was informed that because my husband's job switched insurance my copay is now

$5900 every three months. I told them to please keep the Xolair. It helped with

my allergies but I still had asthma problems. I am just going to let it go and

see if I can get along with out it. The Xolair assistance is for $4000 per year.

After that, I would still need more money.

Carol, I am also on Medicare, so can appreciate your situation. I am very

concerned about the same thing happening to all of us that are on Medicare. I

did read on another xolair site about healthwell foundation. There were people

posting who had gotten help, but it seemed to be for people with minimal

insurance. I know Medicare limits the amount that can be charged - perhaps you

could get a supplemental policy to cover the rest. Do you get your shots in the

hospital? Hope you are able to work this all out!! Marilyn

Apparently it's only for young people. They told me it's against federal law to

offer it to anyone on any type of Medicare product, effectively exclusing

assistance to anyone over 65 who is a U.S. citizen.
