I can confirm, as a insured I am paying $0.00 for Insulin in Macedonia. Now I am receiving 6 Novo Nordisk Tresiba pens per month. How much is that in US?
I couldn't find the answer easily myself and ended up asking AI, so take this with a significant grain of salt, but supposedly a 3mL pen would be around $145 without insurance. If anyone can find a better source, I'd be all ears.
it is difficult to find out (by design) but i have found this for uninsured people
and this for insured people who qualify for a savings card(?)
Is it free in grey countries?
Either that, or maybe they don't have diabetes there. (Lol joking)
1/5th cost just by driving to Canada.
