Hi all,
I went to an MS support group this week. It was wonderful. 2 MS nurses lead it, and there was a MS advocate, who is a social worker that also brings information. It has been going strong for 12+ years, really good group. They also had muffins, candy and bottles of water, need I say more LOL.
Anyway, they told us that Betaseron, the company that makes it, I cant remember the name, will be doing away with co-pays. They will accept what the insurance gives, and will not expect any more from the patient. The nurse said, the rest of the injectables will follow (Copaxone, Rebif, Avonex). They "always" follow each other to stay competitive. That is a GREAT thing.I hope she was/is right.
Just passing on some good news,
Michelle
