How to Get the Lowest Price

Strategy	What to Do	Why It Helps
Insurance	Verify your plan’s formulary status and preferred pharmacy.	Many plans cover insulin at a lower co‑pay or copay, or have a specific “preferred” pharmacy that offers reduced dispensing fees.
Manufacturer coupons	Check Eli Lilly’s patient assistance program (if eligible) and the “Lilly Direct” discount program.	Some programs provide a $20–$30 discount per vial or a free vial after a certain number of purchases.
Pharmacy discount cards	Use cards like GoodRx, Blink, or 1-800-411-8888.	These often cut the out‑of‑pocket price by $10–$30 per vial.
Bulk or subscription programs	Some pharmacies allow you to pay monthly or quarterly for a set number of vials.	You may earn savings by committing to a regular supply.
State or local programs	Check if your state has a medication assistance program for insulin.	Some states offer free or low‑cost insulin to qualifying patients.
