Common questions about Qutenza’s cost

Here are some common questions and answers about Qutenza.  

Does Medicare cover Qutenza?

Possibly. Like other insurance plans, Medicare coverage for medications varies depending on the specific plan you have. The list of drugs a plan covers is called a formulary. A plan’s formulary may change over time, so be sure to check with your insurance provider to learn which drugs are covered.

Is Qutenza covered by insurance?

It depends. Each insurance plan has its own drug list, also called a formulary. If Qutenza isn’t on your plan’s drug list, a different medication may be available to treat your condition. 

If your drug plan does cover Qutenza, the cost may differ based on your insurance plan and whether you’ve paid your deductible for the year. Other factors that may affect your cost include which pharmacy you use and whether you get a 90-day supply.

If you’d like to know more about whether Qutenza is covered by your insurance, talk with your insurance provider, doctor, or pharmacist.

Is Qutenza covered by Medicare Part B?

Most prescription drugs aren’t covered by Medicare Part B. Medicare Part C and D are more likely to cover prescription drugs. But like other insurance plans, Medicare coverage for medications varies depending on the specific plan you have. Talk with your doctor or insurance provider to learn more.
