Who is eligible for vascepa assistance?



Vascepa is a prescription medication used to treat high levels of triglycerides in the blood. According to the sources provided, there are several ways to obtain assistance for Vascepa.

Firstly, the drug's manufacturer, Amarin Pharma, offers a savings program for eligible patients with commercial insurance. The Vascepa Savings Card allows eligible patients to pay as little as $9 per month for their prescription. To be eligible for this program, patients must have commercial insurance, not be enrolled in any state or federally funded programs, and meet other program requirements. [2]

Secondly, NeedyMeds, a national nonprofit organization, provides information on patient assistance programs that offer free or discounted medications to eligible individuals. The organization lists a patient assistance program for Vascepa, which provides the medication at no cost to eligible individuals who meet certain income and insurance criteria. [3]

It is important to note that eligibility for these programs may vary and patients should check with the specific program for details on eligibility requirements. Additionally, the sources provided do not mention any specific eligibility criteria for patients who do not have commercial insurance or who do not meet the income and insurance criteria for the patient assistance program.
