My father has been living with HCC for the past 2.5 years. He has finally at the point where there are no viable options left for him. I asked his oncologist about nexavar (as well as sutent). Could you please give me some ballpark figure as to how much a bottle of 120 tablets of nexavar costs? Thank you so much in advance.
Hello,
My dad has been on Nexavar for about 2 weeks now. He was prescribed a bottle of 120 pills enough for a month and it costed a bit more than $6000. Fortunately, my parents both have insurance plans under the same company and were able to get Nexavar approved under coordination of benefits. As a result, my dads meds are covered 100%. I really suggest contacting your insurance company directly to personally appeal your case. We also asked the president of my dad's company for help as well, and he was able to not only expedite our appeal, but talk on our behalf. I wish you the best of luck =)
