Yes, let's definitely stay in touch/updated! Feel free to private message me if I miss a response on this thread, but I'm guessing our experiences might be helpful/relevant to others who may be in a similar boat. I 100% understand about not wanting to rock the boat with any changes. I'm hoping it'll be smooth sailing for both of us!
I did actually call the Amgen Support Plus program (for Amjevita) this week to get information on patient assistance and whether they had a reimbursement program similar to Humira. Good news is they offer both reimbursement as well as co-pay assistance to help with financial support! I still had to enroll in the Support Plus program (which is the co-pay card assistance program) so they could have a patient record for me, but then they sent me a link to sign up for their 3rd party reimbursement website. I realize not everyone is able to pay up front for medication and do reimbursement, but am grateful we have this option, which helps us meet our out-of-pocket max within the first few months of the year! I have other medical issues that require annual tests that are quite costly, so meeting our OOP max so early in the year really helps us financially!
I have one more refill of Humira left that I should be able to fill at the end of this month (if all goes as planned), so I actually might not end up needing Amjevita until February or March once I finish off my Humira supply. This will give me an extra buffer to sort out any delays that might happen with the switch over too (like prior authorization, prescription issues, etc).
