It’s time for your annual insurance, financial and copay assistance review with Christina Bach, LCSW, OSW-C, FAOSW. Christina will address insurance basics, copay insurance, and spend some extra time talking about changes coming to Medicare Part D for 2025. And yes, Christina will be addressing the issue many folks are bringing to her attention about brand name Revlimid NOT being covered by many part D plans in 2025.
Bring your questions and let’s see who can stump Christina!
