provenge is fully covered by medicare. from what i've heard, dendreon has been good at dealing with insurance companies to ensure the treatment is covered, as you see from AET revising its policy a couple weeks ago. here's a link to the company website discussing reimbursement: http://www.provenge.com/reimbursement.aspx
no doubt the treatment is expensive, so hopefully the company will be able to bring COGS down and reduce the price in the future.
