Tuesday’s Daily Piece: New Lower-Priced Insulin

We all know that cost of insulin is HIGH!!! Several of the insulin manufacturers are implementing various cost lowering and/or savings programs that aim to address the pricing concerns. Eli Lilly in 2019 created lower-priced version of meal time insulin, Humalog. Now in 2020, they will now be introducing two additional lower-priced versions of their insulins, Humalog Junior KwikPen and Humalog Mix 75/25. The list price will be $265.20 for a pack of five KwikPens. While this is certainly a move in the right direction, I am still deeply concerned about the cost of insulin.
