Novo Nordisk MN Continuing Need Program

Based on the information that you provided, you may be eligible for the Novo Nordisk Patient Assistance Program under the Minnesota Continuing Need Program. If you have insurance that requires you to pay more than $75 out-of-pocket for a 30-day prescription, you can still fill out the application. Because you are a resident of Minnesota, you may qualify, even though the current form states you must not be insured. Novo Nordisk will verify eligibility through your insurance.

Under the Novo Nordisk Patient Assistance Program, your insulin will be for free for up to 12 months. If you have any questions about this program, you can call 1-866-310-7549 (M-F 8AM to 8PM)

About Getinsulin.org

GetInsulin.org is a resource for those struggling to access insulin today. Since 2013, the list price of insulin has skyrocketed, leaving some without health insurance or on high-deductible insurance plans paying out-of-pocket upwards of $1,000 for a one-month supply of insulin, often unaware of assistance options. This is the result of a unique drug pricing crisis going on in the United States that will require widespread healthcare reform to bring list prices down. In the immediate term, people in the US need to know what their options are to access insulin.

GetInsulin.org is a program of Beyond Type 1, an organization that advocates for high quality, modern insulin to be available to people with diabetes regardless of employment or insurance status, across all demographics, without barriers, and at an affordable and predictable price point. Until that is achieved, GetInsulin.org is a tool for those needing access to insulin options immediately.
