Title: Exjade and expense
Post by: cherylnormwg on March 28, 2013, 12:08:32 AM

Hello everyone,
I was wondering my daughter just started with exjade two weeks ago.  We received our first prescription at no cost while they were checking our finances.  We got turned down for this.  Our prescription is going to cost 1935.00.  The reason why we were turned down is because after I pay a 2500.00 deductible it will be no charge.  We cannot afford the 1935.00 at this time due to my husband only working part time.  Is anyone else in this situation and what do you do?  Thanks

This is something you should discuss with Eileen from CAF. If there is a way to deal with it, she will know.
