valiz Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 I was prescribed Northera. My insurance at Target couldn't get it even from their specialty pharmacy. I talked to the nurse at the clinic and told them to fill out the paperwork on Northera.com So we'll see what happens. If any of you have suggestions let me know. I hope it will help me. liz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clb75 Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 I called the number on the Northera site to get more information about a month ago. They told me your doctor has to complete their paperwork,then they will work with your insurance to see if or for how much they will approve it for. If not then they have an assistance program to help cover the costs. They ship it to you from their own specialty pharmacy once they have the costs figured out.

valiz Posted June 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Thank-you Cib 75. I did my part of the paperwork and took the rest to the Dr. office and they will do the rest of the form and send to Northera. I'm expecting for it to be a lengthy process.
