How Does Copay Assistance Work?

Do you have high out-of-pocket costs? Do you use copay assistance to afford your treatment? If you said yes to either of these questions, you are not alone.

High out-of-pocket costs are a common challenge for people with psoriatic disease. In fact, a 2020 NPF survey of people with psoriatic disease found that 80% of people on commercial insurance rely on copay assistance to afford their biologic treatment. But, what happens when health insurance plans stop counting copay assistance toward your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum?

A new insurance program called a Copay Accumulator Adjustment Program (CAAP) is making it harder for people with psoriatic disease to afford the care you need. The use of CAAPs is becoming more common.
