    I just got on this forum and saw your post. I didn’t read through all the replies, but I wanted to share with you my recent experience in getting help with paying for Radicava. My husband has Medicare with a supplement and part D. This left us with a medication co-pay of $545/mo, not including nursing and supply costs. I was given the name of a foundation called Healthwell 1800 675 8416. Have you contacted them? They issued a grant to us for up to $16,000 for this year for rx cost (We will need to re-qualify next year). In the past, Searchlight offered us $0, so I really encourage you to reach out and see what they say. The process took literally 20 min. It was the easiest thing I’ve done in a long time. Another foundation name I was given is PSI 1800 366 7741. My husband will be starting his in home infusions in August. I will be trained to administer, but may have to go to the hospital once or twice per cycle to have the port accessed.
