JAK Inhibitors

How do I get jack inhibitors covered by insurance? Boy, if I had an answer to that question or had a way to fix that, I think I'd get all the referrals from around the country. I don't have a great answer. Most of the time I get these for patients who are willing to pay cash. I have been able to get oral tofacitinib as compassionate use for some of my patients. Remember, it is approved for rheumatoid arthritis. So if you do have a patient who has uncommon at RA and vitiligo for example, which isn't uncommon, talk and coordinate with your rheumatologist buddy. See if you can get it covered through the RA indication because it is on label for that. Also, the topicals fairly inexpensive depending on which compounding pharmacy you use. So that's something to keep in mind.
