Watch the SIMPONI ARIA® Infusion Video
After talking to your doctor, you may still have questions about receiving an infusion. The SIMPONI ARIA® infusion video walks you through the steps for the SIMPONI ARIA® infusion process—before, during, and after treatment—and explains what to expect during the infusion.
If your health plan does not approve SIMPONI ARIA® treatment
Sometimes you may not be able to obtain the medicine that your doctor has ordered for you. For example, your health plan might not cover the medicine because it is not on the plan’s drug list (formulary) or the cost is higher than you think you should have to pay. In these situations, you and your doctor have the right to ask the health plan to explain its decision and to consider making the medicine available to you as an exception to its policies.
If you have questions, please call J&J withMe at 877-227-3728, Monday–Friday, .
