Card Eligibility:

(1) You have been prescribed Olumiant® (baricitinib) for an approved use consistent with FDA-approved product labeling;

(2) You are enrolled in a commercial drug insurance plan;

(3) You are not enrolled in any state, federal, or government funded healthcare program, including, without limitation, Medicaid, Medicare, Medicare Part D, Medicare Advantage, Medigap, DoD, VA, TRICARE®/CHAMPUS, or any state prescription drug assistance program;

(4) You are a resident of the United States or Puerto Rico; and

(5) You are 18 years of age or older.

Card Terms and Conditions:
For patients with commercial drug insurance coverage for Olumiant: You must have commercial drug insurance that covers Olumiant and a prescription for an approved use consistent with FDA-approved product labeling to pay as little as $5 for a 1-month prescription fill of Olumiant. Month is defined as 30 days. Card must be first used by no later than 12/31/2025. Card savings are subject to a maximum monthly savings of wholesale acquisition cost plus usual and customary pharmacy charges and a separate maximum annual savings of up to $9,200 per calendar year. Card may be used for up to a maximum of 13 prescription fills per calendar year and up to a maximum of 24 prescription fills over the lifetime of the Program, subject to the previously stated maximum monthly and annual savings limit. Except where prohibited by applicable state law, Card monthly and annual savings are reduced if Lilly identifies that you are enrolled in a plan or program, sometimes called a maximizer plan, that adjusts your cost sharing amount to be equal to or include some portion of the savings provided by the Card and attempts to prevent the savings from this Card from being applied to your out-of-pocket costs, including but not limited to copayments, coinsurances, and deductibles (“Maximizer”). If the Program identifies you are enrolled in a Maximizer, Card savings are reduced to a maximum annual savings of up to $6,000 per calendar year. If you have reason to believe that the Program erroneously identified enrollment in a Maximizer, please call the Olumiant Savings Card Program at 1-844-658-6426. Participation in the Program requires a valid patient HIPAA authorization upon enrollment into the Program. Subject to Lilly USA, LLC's right to terminate, rescind, revoke, or amend Card eligibility criteria and/or Card terms and conditions which may occur at Lilly’s sole discretion, without notice, and for any reason. Card expires and savings end on 12/31/2027 or 24 months after you first use the Card, whichever comes first.

For patients with commercial drug insurance who do not have coverage for Olumiant: You must have commercial drug insurance that does not cover Olumiant and a prescription for an approved use consistent with FDA-approved product labeling to pay as little as $25 for a 1-month supply of Olumiant.

Card must be first used by no later than 12/31/2025. Participation in the Program requires submission of a prior authorization (PA) prior to the first prescription fill. If coverage is denied, an appeal must be submitted prior to 5th month prescription fill. To remain eligible for the Program, a new PA, appeal, or medical exception must be submitted prior to the 13th prescription fill and as required by Lilly at its sole discretion. Participation in the Program requires a valid patient HIPAA authorization to remain in the Program.

Additional Program Terms and Conditions
If you have an insurance plan that is participating in an alternate funding program (“AFP”) that requires you to apply to the Olumiant Savings Card Program or otherwise pursue specialty drug prescription coverage through an alternate funding vendor as a condition of, requirement for, or prerequisite to coverage of Olumiant, you are not eligible for and are prohibited from using the Olumiant Savings Card Program. AFPs include programs where coverage, reimbursement, or patient out of pocket costs for a product in some way vary based on the availability of a manufacturer co-pay program. AFPs may modify, delay, deny, restrict, or withhold insurance benefits or coverage from patients, or exclude Lilly products from coverage contingent upon a member's use of Olumiant Savings Card Program. You agree to inform Olumiant Savings Card Program if you are or become a member of such an alternative funding program. You are responsible for any applicable taxes, fees, and any amount that exceeds the applicable monthly or annual maximum Card savings. Monthly and annual maximum savings are set at Lilly's sole and absolute discretion and may be changed with or without notice at any time for any reason. At its sole discretion and with or without notice, Lilly may reduce, eliminate, or otherwise modify the Card savings for any reason, including but not limited to if your commercial drug insurance plan imposes additional requirements which limits or prevents you from receiving coverage for Olumiant, only allows partial coverage for Olumiant, removes coverage for Olumiant and requires you to utilize the Card, does not provide a material level of financial assistance for the cost of Olumiant, or does not apply Card payments to satisfy your co-payment, deductible, or coinsurance for Olumiant. Card savings are not valid for: Massachusetts residents if an AB-rated generic equivalent is available; California residents if an FDA-approved therapeutic equivalent is available. You must meet the Card eligibility criteria, terms and conditions every time you use the Card. If at any time you begin receiving drug coverage under any state, federal, or government funded healthcare program, you understand that you will no longer be eligible for the Olumiant Savings Card and agree to call the Olumiant Savings Card Program at 1-844-658-6426 to stop participation. Card activation is required. You may not seek reimbursement from your health insurance, any third party, or any health savings, flexible spending, or other healthcare reimbursement accounts, for any amount of the savings received through the Card.

Eligibility criteria, and terms and conditions for the Olumiant Savings Card Program may change from time to time; the most current version can be found at https://www.olumiant.lilly.com/savings-support. You may be required to obtain a new Card, including if any Card terms and conditions have been terminated, rescinded, revoked, or amended by Lilly. Card void where prohibited by law.

SAFETY SUMMARY WITH WARNINGS

 

WARNINGS - Olumiant may cause serious side effects, including:

  • Serious infections, including tuberculosis (TB), shingles, and others caused by bacteria, fungi, or viruses. Some people have died from these infections. Olumiant can make you more likely to get infections or make any infections that you have worse. Your doctor should test for TB before starting Olumiant and watch for TB symptoms during treatment.

  • Cancer and immune system problems. Olumiant may increase your risk of lymphoma and other cancers, including skin cancers. People taking a medicine in the class of medicines called JAK inhibitors have a higher risk of certain cancers, including lymphoma and lung cancer, especially if you are a current or past smoker. Follow your doctor’s advice about having your skin checked for skin cancer while taking Olumiant.
  • Increased risk of major cardiovascular events such as heart attack, stroke or death in people 50 years of age and older who have at least 1 heart disease risk factor and taking a medicine in the class of medicines called JAK inhibitors, especially if you are a current or past smoker.

Stop taking Olumiant and tell your doctor or get emergency help right away if you have any signs and symptoms of blood clots, including swelling, pain or tenderness in the leg, sudden chest pain, or shortness of breath, while taking Olumiant.
  • Allergic reactions. While taking Olumiant, if you have symptoms, such as rash (hives), trouble breathing, feeling faint or dizzy, or swelling of your lips, tongue, or throat, stop taking Olumiant and get emergency help right away. Some of these reactions seen in people taking Olumiant were serious.

While taking Olumiant, tell your doctor right away if you have fever and stomach-area pain that does not go away, and a change in bowel habits.
  • Changes in laboratory test results. Your doctor should do blood tests before and while taking Olumiant. You should not take Olumiant if your white or red blood cell count is too low or your liver tests are too high.
