Vascepa is a prescription medication that is used to treat high levels of triglycerides in the blood. The cost of Vascepa can vary depending on several factors, including insurance coverage. According to the manufacturer's website, Vascepa is covered by most commercial insurance plans. Patients with commercial insurance can also take advantage of a savings program offered by the manufacturer. The savings program is intended to help eligible patients reduce their out-of-pocket costs for Vascepa. However, the savings program is not available to patients who are covered by government-funded insurance programs such as Medicare or Medicaid. Patients who are covered by government-funded insurance programs should contact their insurance provider to determine if Vascepa is covered under their plan. [2][3]
It is important to note that insurance coverage can vary depending on the specific plan and the individual's circumstances. Patients who are interested in taking Vascepa should consult with their healthcare provider and their insurance provider to determine if Vascepa is covered under their plan and what their out-of-pocket costs may be.
