The big expense comes from the infusions which range anywhere from about $ 2500.00 to over $ 8000.00!! Harry |

Thanks for the price quote. Although my infusion costs $498 a pop. That's a far cry from thousands of dollars.

I heard that Rush in Chicago charges more than 10k per infusion.

I wasn't clear enough. $498 is billed to my insurance each month for the infusion process. This does not include cost of drug which I get through my prescription drug plan through a specialty pharmacy. I have Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO.
Maybe it is less expensive since I get it at my doctor's office and not through a freestanding infusion clinic? (they do call it an infusion clinic though since other people are around me getting it too).
