Hi there,

On the phone again this morning. Looks like we are now just waiting on insurance to run it. Now that brings me to the next portion.

Copay......We have never had a large copay on Pulmozyme. Maybe only $30.00 every three months. My question is now how to keep that. I know we have never qualified for any, any kind of assistance programs because of my hubands income. Do you think it was a Pulmozyme Manuifacture program? I'm on the phone now doing my detective work.

I wish I would of kept notes on this, but I was such a walking zombie the first couple months. Thanks for any tips!!

Thanks guys!! CF MOMS KNOW THEIR STUFF!! I TOTALLY AGREE ON THE CLASS THING, HAD NO IDEA THE BATTLES WE WOULD FACE. SOmetimes, I think I'm just not smart enough to be his mommy<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0"> Guess that's when you have to fake it and put on that poker face<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Yea! We were briefly eligible for the Tobi program, but no longer are due to income. We DO have a $1,000 out of pocket maximum for prescriptions and then "only" have to pay a $15 or $30 copay per med. So we flex that an more out of our pay each year.

Was a bit of a shock the first time I had to cough up $565 for a med when DS was a baby, but now I find it entertaining to freak out the pharmacy students who work at our pharmacy -- they get all flustered and apologetic.

As for a class -- I would like to suggest "How to identify normal poop" <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Another class could be "how to fatten up your CF child without fattening up yourself and your family!"

We use Pulmozyme monthly and pay $30 for it. We use Pulmozyme's Program. there are no income requirements. <a href="http://www.pulmozyme.com/insurance/copay-card.jsp">http://www.pulmozyme.com/insurance/copay-card.jsp</a>. It is like an insurance card and they keep the number on file and run it as a copay :)
