Am I eligible for the Orencia patient assistance program?

To find out if you are eligible for Orencia assistance you can apply online using our enrollment application. Each pharmaceutical company sets its eligibility criteria, and we will review your application individually to determine if you may be eligible. The three main factors to consider are:

• I am a permanent, legal resident of the United States or Puerto Rico
• I am uninsured or my insurance doesn’t cover my medication
• I meet certain income eligibility requirements

How do I apply for the Orencia patient assistance program?

Our application process aims to make it as easy as possible to apply for the Orencia patient assistance program. The first step is to complete our online enrollment application. We will ask you for details about your healthcare provider, your insurance plan, and your household income as this information is required by the pharmaceutical companies. We may be able to help you apply for other patient assistance programs too, so be sure to tell us about any medications you are taking as well as Orencia.

NiceRx will review your application and determine whether you may be eligible for Orencia assistance. If so, we will handle the full enrollment process for you and prepare all required documents for your healthcare provider to sign. Once you are successfully enrolled in the Orencia patient assistance program, we will help you manage your prescription refills by requesting refills on your behalf throughout your enrollment period. At the end of your enrollment period we will contact you for updated information and seek to re-enroll you so you can continue to access affordable Orencia.

What is Orencia?

Orencia is a prescription medicine used to treat inflammatory autoimmune disorders, including:

1. Moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis in adults
2. Active psoriatic arthritis in adults
3. Moderate to severe polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis in children aged 2 years and over

These inflammatory autoimmune diseases typically cannot be permanently cured. They will likely affect you for life, but you will have periods where symptoms ease off or disappear and periods where your symptoms flare-up and become more severe. Medications like Orencia can help you manage your symptoms and reduce the severity of your flareups.

If you have an inflammatory autoimmune disease your doctor may prescribe Orencia to you. It is a medication that is given to you by a healthcare professional as an intravenous infusion (IV infusion) directly into a vein. It helps to reduce inflammation in your body, easing the symptoms of your inflammatory autoimmune disease. You typically receive Orencia infusions every four weeks, but your doctor will tell you how much Orencia you will need and how often you will have infusions based on your condition and medical history.
