Good news for those on Medicare

Some of you probably received the same email I did.  Biogen sent me an email saying they could now help people get financing,  even if you're on a Medicare plan.  So far, only Biogen is working with Medicare patients.   There's a lot of paperwork involved,  but it look like I'm finally going to start a DMD again.  

All of Biogen's MS meds are available for the program:  
Avonex
Plegridy
Tysabri
Tecfidera
It's worth calling about.  Here's the number for the correct department  1 (800) 456-2235.  They're open 8:30a to 8:00p.

Is that different from a medadvantage plan?

That's great.  I had to take out Medigap N to get my 2nd year of Tysabri covered but it has saved me in so many other ways.  People might want to consider it.
