Genentech BioOncology Co-pay Card Program
Helping you connect to your treatment
At Genentech, we are committed to helping patients access the treatment they need.
That's why we offer the Genentech BioOncology Co-pay Card. If you are eligible, this card can help lower your out- of pocket costs like co-payments, co-insurance or deductibles for your Genentech cancer therapy. Out-of-pocket costs are the part of your treatment that your healtcare plan requires you to pay.
Can I use this card?

I am covered by commercial insurance. To answer "yes" to this question, you cannot be covered by a government-funded healthcare program such as Medicare, Medicaid, Medigap, VA, DoD or Tricare (or any other federally- or state-funded benefit programs, including government employee plans). |

| I am age 18 years or older. | ||
| I currently live or get treatment in the United States or Puerto Rico, but not in Massachusetts or Vermont.† | ||
| If you answered "yes" to all the questions above, you are eligible. | ||
What if I am not eligible?
If you answered “no” to any of the questions above but need help paying for your treatment, we can still help you by referring you to an independent, non-profit organization (INO) for financial assistance. If you do not have insurance, you may be able to get free treatment through the Genentech Access to Care Foundation. Call a Genentech BioOncology™ Access Solutions® Specialist at 1-888-249-4918 from 6 am – 5 pm PT, or visit www.BioOncologyAccessSolutions.com to find out more.
