Members responded to someone asking about Amjevita costs with Humana and Medicare insurance, with experiences varying widely depending on coverage, from little to no cost for some to an overwhelming $5,800 monthly without insurance. Several members shared helpful resources, including pharmaceutical company patient assistance programs that can provide the medication for free with a yearly card, VA coverage for veterans, NHS coverage in the UK, and potential Medicaid coverage. A recurring theme was gratitude for accessible programs, frustration with insurance barriers and the VA system, and appreciation for veterans who continue to fight for the care they deserve.

We are fortunate as my husband was given this under the NHS...so no cost to us. He put off taking it for a couple of years..but 2 months ago he decided after suffering pain for many years..diagnosed at 26 and now 56..he decided to go ahead. The pain relief was almost immediate..pleased he took the plunge. Wish he'd done this years ago before the condition had worsened..he might have been able to do the exercises recommended at that time.

With your insurance you cost shouldn't be very much if any at all but for anyone without insurance like me its $5,800 a month.
