Ten years ago, our dad was diagnosed with Hepatitis C. As most people are aware, there was no known cure in the past for this blood disease. Recently we learned of HARVONI, a first ever pill to cure Hepatitis C with a 90% guarantee.
Obviously, with HARVONI being a new drug on the market its cost is outrageous and nearly impossible for an individual to afford. So now you’re thinking that’s what insurance is for. Well we all know insurance is great when they choose to pay all or half of our medical expenses. Unfortunately, after all the testing the insurance company required to get approved for HARVONI dad was denied.
Help us support and reach our goal of 90,000 for a 12 week supply of HARVONI!
WHAT IS HARVONI?
Harvoni (ledipasvir and sofosbuvir) is a direct-acting antiviral agent used to treat chronic hepatitis C (CHC) genotype 1 infection in adults
Harvoni rings in at $1,125 per pill, or $94,500 for a 12-week course of treatment, and other new medications are nearly as pricey. Insurers are scrambling to figure out how to pay for treatment without breaking the bank. Many say they will only cover costly therapies for the sickest patients.
WHAT IS HEPATITIS C?
Hepatitis C is a blood disease caused by a virus that infects the liver. In time, it can lead to cirrhosis, liver cancer, and liver failure. Hepatitis C symptoms may cause fatigue, joint pain, belly pain, itchy skin, Sore muscles, dark urine, Jaundice, a condition in which the skin and the whites of the eyes look yellow.
Thank you in advance for your support and donations!
It's very much appreciated! Thanks to your help we are thrilled and determined to reach our goal! What a surprise it will be for dad ;)
