Sanofi Patient Connection - Lantus PAP
Household income at or below 400% of the federal poverty level:
| Household size | Annual income limit |

| 3 people | $109,280 |
| 4 people | $132,000 |

Alaska and Hawaii use higher figures. Each program makes the final eligibility decision - confirm on the official application linked above.
Not sure which kind of help you qualify for?
Lantus offers more than one kind of program, and they have opposite rules:
- Have private insurance? The copay card can cut your monthly cost - but it can’t be used with Medicare, Medicaid, the VA, or Tricare.
- Uninsured or low-income? The patient assistance program may give you Lantus free or nearly free, if your income is under its limit.
- On Medicare? The copay card won’t work, but Lantus’s patient assistance program still does - plus federal Extra Help.
We show both programs, and the real income limits, below. Or read the full copay card vs patient assistance guide

Lantus assistance, answered plainly
Is there a Lantus patient assistance program?

Does Medicare cover Lantus?
Medicare coverage for Lantus depends on your own plan: depending on how it is given, a drug can fall under Part B (administered in a clinic) or Part D (filled at a pharmacy), and each plan decides what it covers. Your plan's documents or Medicare's plan finder are the only reliable check. Separate from coverage, Sanofi Patient Connection - Lantus PAP is open to some Medicare patients when out-of-pocket costs stay high - details above.
