Autoimmune disease stole your ability to function normally. Joint inflammation made basic movements excruciating, and intestinal inflammation from Crohn’s kept you home-bound. Your rheumatologist recommended Cimzia injections after conventional treatments failed, and within months the biologic brought inflammation under control. You could work again, move without pain, eat without fear. Then insurance reclassified Cimzia, and your monthly costs became unsustainable.
That’s the gap we fill and will continue to fill for our patients. The primary objective at The Rx Advocates helps autoimmune disease patients access Patient Assistance Programs (PAPs) that price Cimzia according to income rather than specialty pharmacy markup.
What is the Cimzia Patient Assistance Program?
Biologic manufacturers fund programs specifically for patients with autoimmune conditions who can’t afford specialty medications at standard pricing. Approval means accessing Cimzia at dramatically reduced costs, preventing insurance formulary changes from forcing you off treatment that restored your quality of life.
You submit prescription and income documentation. We manage everything else by building applications, coordinating with your specialist for medical verification, filing with manufacturers, and monitoring approval. Once enrolled, Cimzia arrives at your door on schedule.
We link autoimmune patients to pharmaceutical programs that base biologic costs on financial capability instead of market rates for specialty drugs.
How to Qualify
Companies assess applications using various benchmarks. Meeting these income criteria improves your chances:
- Singles earning under $40,000 yearly
- Couples with combined income below $60,000 per year
- Families of three or more making less than $100,000 annually
- Current prescription from licensed specialist
Income alone won’t determine eligibility. Each manufacturer evaluates additional factors unique to their program. Every situation gets reviewed individually. Don’t wait another day wondering; contact us for a personalized assessment.
Cost of Cimzia
with The Rx Advocates
The monthly service fee depends on the number of medications you take. For example:
$80 / Month
$90 / Month
$100 / Month
$110 / Month
NOTE: In addition to our monthly service fee, we charge a one-time enrollment fee of $35.
Our service is month-to-month, so if you’re not happy with it, you may cancel at any time.
The Rx Advocates Can Help Reduce Cimzia Costs
Our fees remain constant even when Cimzia prices increase. What you pay depends only on medication count needing assistance:
- 1 medication: $80 per month
- 2 medications: $90 per month
- 3 medications: $100 per month
- 4+ medications: $110 per month
Autoimmune diseases require continuous biologic therapy for disease control. We built our service for patients facing insurance barriers like sudden tier changes, prior authorization denials despite specialist recommendations, or policies that favor less effective cheaper alternatives.
We don’t distribute coupons. Our work involves guiding patients through manufacturer enrollment that keeps biologics accessible at prices far below specialty pharmacy charges.

- Coverage gaps: Fall short for expensive biologics
PAP benefits
- Substantial savings: Discounts vastly exceeding coupons

- Convenient delivery: Ships to your address
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Do you have questions about Cimzia and PAPs? We cover them for you below:
With The Rx Advocates, patients pay a fixed monthly service fee, which depends on the number of medications covered.
- 1 Medication (Cimzia only) – $80 per month
- 2 Medications (Cimzia + 1 other) – $90 per month
- 3 Medications (Cimzia + 2 others) – $100 per month
- 4+ Medications – $110 per month
Importantly, there are no hidden fees, and prices remain consistent even if retail costs fluctuate.
Buying Cimzia without program help varies widely depending on specialty pharmacy and insurance. What you’d pay depends on things outside your control like geographic location, which specialty pharmacy you use, and your plan’s biologic coverage structure.
Income thresholds typically sit around $40k for singles, $60k for couples, $100k for families. These are baseline figures only. Companies look at other criteria too requiring individual evaluation from our team.
We handle complete enrollment and ongoing injection coordination by gathering specialist paperwork, filling out manufacturer forms correctly, and arranging deliveries so you never miss doses.
About Cimzia
Cimzia contains certolizumab pegol, a TNF blocker treating rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, Crohn’s disease, and non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis in adults.
How it works: Certolizumab blocks tumor necrosis factor alpha, a protein triggering inflammation in autoimmune conditions. Blocking TNF-alpha reduces inflammation, slows joint damage, and controls intestinal inflammation.
Administration: Given as subcutaneous injection. Loading doses vary by condition. Maintenance dosing typically every two weeks or monthly depending on condition. Can self-inject at home after training.
Side effects:
- Common: Upper respiratory infections, rash, urinary tract infections, injection site reactions
- Serious: Serious infections including tuberculosis, lymphoma, heart failure worsening, lupus-like syndrome
Important warnings: Increases serious infection risk including tuberculosis reactivation. Requires TB testing before starting. Can’t receive live vaccines during treatment. May increase cancer risk, especially lymphoma. Can worsen or trigger heart failure. May cause new or worsening psoriasis.

Uncontrolled autoimmune disease causes permanent joint destruction, intestinal damage requiring surgery, chronic pain, and disability. Stopping Cimzia because you can’t afford it means watching inflammation return, potentially causing irreversible damage while you were in remission.
Let us be the first to tell you that now is the time. No more waiting and wondering. Reach out to us online or give us a call at (844) 559-8332 today. Staying in remission shouldn’t cost your financial stability.
