Before Your Appointment:
- Contact your Medicare plan directly with the procedure and diagnosis codes from your doctor

Manufacturer Support:
Contact the Ocrevus manufacturer directly to ask about financial assistance programs. Many people have found significant help with copays through these programs - some MyMSTeam members have reported their costs dropping to as little as $5 after manufacturer assistance.

Dual Coverage:
If you're eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid, you may have additional coverage options available.

It's important to confirm coverage details before each infusion to understand your financial responsibility upfront.
