Cardiomd is right. Having major issues with insurance coverage. Some ask for TG above 500 and flatly deny. Some MDs will give up rahther than going through TAR process.
In California, we use specialty pharmacy like Foothill remedy drug pharmacy. 818 236 2500. They do better than regular pharmacy taking some burden off from doctors, practice. They must know how to deal with Ins. Co and go easy on copay.
High copays is a big issues.

OMG … Why not with the receptionist at Amarin …?

Sound like you think your Vascepa rep responsible for coverage database, negotiation with insurances or has a firsthand information … Otherwise your post does not make any sense ...

Nope: Amarin has the staff dedicated to this task and these aren't the reps … and to avoid any doubt: it isn't JT either … (more likely) he is involved in a few negotiation - with the biggest insurances - only … if in any.

Your experience is real but it is a smaller percentage of the total US market than the p-value in the R-IT …

It is really amazing that you think you have better and more accurate knowledge about the coverage than JT …
