Remicade an expensive medication given in a doctors office or infusion center is about $10,000.00 per treatment. Currently my private insurance pays the total bill after it is discounted. If anyone here gets one of these medications would you please let me know if it is covered without the "Donut Hole" issue?

Thank you.
