Has anyone had the Vector testing done. It has been ordered for me but my insurance will not cover it. There is supposed to be assistance to help pay for it. Does anyone have any information on it?

If that’s what it is called, I found this .

The Vectra DA test costs around $1,000, but you have options for reducing the amount you have to pay.

First, check with your insurance company or program to see whether the Vectra DA test is covered and to what extent. Medicare and Medicaid fully cover two Vectra DA tests per year with no out-of-pocket expenses.

If you have no coverage or inadequate coverage, Crescendo Bioscience has a financial assistance program that may help. The company's website claims that 70% of people tested pay nothing and more than 95% of patients pay $90 or less. Visit the website or call 1-877-RHEUMDX (1-877-743-8639) to learn about financial assistance.

I have t been on for awhile. The VECTRA DA test was covered by my insurance I believe. Had it done and the results were promising. My inflammation is mild now. So all my treatments are helping. I still have symptoms but I know it could be much worse so I feel blessed everyday.

I have had Vectra test twice and honestly I feel that my own assessment of my condition is a good guide as to how things are. After 38 years with RA I pretty much know if a med is failing and I need to try a new one. I know if the disease is active.
