A big thanks to all of you for your time in letting me know what Herceptin is priced at around the world. With your ammunition, I filed a claim with the Illinois Attorney Generals Office against Rush University Medical Center in Chicago where I receive my Herceptin. It has taken several months but Rush has agreed to reduce the price charged for all patients by 21.08% retroactive to December 1, 2004. While I was hoping for a bigger reduction, this is a start and will benefit anyone who received Herceptin at Rush during this time frame and in the future. I couldn't have accomplished this without all the help from all who responded to the pricing you pay.
Never Give Up Hope!
Hugs
Sheila
