How can EntyvioConnect help you?
EntyvioConnect is a patient support program designed to help make your journey as stress-free as possible, offering guidance from a team of caring experts as well as resources ranging from treatment reminders to healthy recipes. Once you are enrolled in EntyvioConnect, a Patient Support Manager will work with you and your doctor’s office to check eligibility requirements for available insurance, financial, and educational resources offered. If you’ve been prescribed the ENTYVIO Pen, you can ask your Patient Support Manager to send you the self-injection training kit too—which includes a travel cooler, injection placemat, and even a practice pen so you can get more comfortable self-injecting.

When you’re living with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease, it can feel like you’re all alone. Who do you call when you need help or have questions about your treatment? And while there's a lot of information out there, how can you tell what’s trustworthy, and what’s not?
The good news is that you’re not alone. If you’ve been prescribed ENTYVIO, there’s a whole support system just waiting to help you. It’s called EntyvioConnect.
There are three main areas where EntyvioConnect can help guide you: Nurse Support, Financial Support, and Ongoing Support.
Let’s start with Nurse Support. We can team you up with an experienced Nurse Educator who can answer your questions about ENTYVIO resources and help you make the most out of every doctor visit. Though they can’t offer medical advice, they’ll be your go-to resource when you need help.
Next up, let’s talk Financial Support. We know insurance can be tricky and knowing your deductibles from your co-pays can be a chore. Our team is here to help you navigate your coverage so you understand how much ENTYVIO will cost you. Here's the best part, if you have commercial insurance, you may be eligible to pay as little as $5 per dose of ENTYVIO. Must meet eligibility requirements.
Have government insurance, like Medicare or Medicaid, or no insurance? We can help you find programs that may lower your costs.
Last but not least, we offer Ongoing Support to help you along your treatment journey. You can sign up for treatment reminders to help you stay on track. You can also get useful tips like healthy recipes, advice on preparing for travel, and more. When you need information, support, or guidance, we’re here to help.
Best of all, EntyvioConnect comes at no cost to you. So if you want to make the most out of your treatment with ENTYVIO, sign up today for EntyvioConnect.
Visit ENTYVIO.com/connect or call 1-844-ENTYVIO (1-844-368-9846) Monday to Friday from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm ET, except holidays
We’re looking forward to hearing from you.

Sarah:
When I found out my insurance was not going to cover ENTYVIO, I was terrified. My doctor told me about EntyvioConnect and they were there to help me. EntyvioConnect is potential financial assistance that you could qualify for if I'm able to get ENTYVIO through your insurance policy.
Mamie:
EntyvioConnect helped me with my insurance when I changed jobs and they helped me seamlessly go from one insurance to the other. And help me not miss a dose, which was so important to me.
Daniel:
Signing up for EntyvioConnect early on your journey is very important. Uh, you want to have that resource available to you before you think you actually need it.
Ron:
So EntyvioConnect, you can call them up. Uh, you know, any concerns you have about, um, co-pays, they can tell you what your insurance company is going to pick up, what the difference that they'll pick up for you, and then any co-pay and out of pocket that you may have.
Mamie:
One thing that I really like about EntyvioConnect is that they see you as a person. Um, that they offer things to you to make your infusion experiences more enjoyable. I remember when I first reached out to EntyvioConnect that they sent me a pair of earbuds. And that just meant so much because you are sitting in a chair, and it's nice to have a pair of earbuds just to listen to some music.
Daniel:
There are many resources that are available with EntyvioConnect. There is a cookbook that they can send you to give you great recipes that are very tasty.
Mamie:
They're there to help you with the ups and downs of insurance, with the ups and downs of dealing with your disease, and to help you in any way that they can.
Sarah:
For anyone signing up for EntyvioConnect, my advice would be to read into all the resources that EntyvioConnect offers, and see if it's the right solution for you.

Sheila:
It's nice to have someone to talk to, and that can be in a lot of different forms... I was very lucky in that my husband was very, my boyfriend at the time, he didn't run away. But, it also helped to seek out, um, either a support group or someone else to talk to so that you can have someone else that can relate to the everyday struggles.
Dan:
You need to talk about it. For me, being a young male, it wasn't a comfortable conversation for me to have when I was first diagnosed, but part of my journey was learning to talk about my ulcerative colitis.
Ron:
You'll be surprised at how many people around you actually have the same or similar issues but are afraid to talk about it. And because I was open and honest with people, they were well then willing to talk about it too.
Kate:
If you can find someone with Crohn's or colitis, um, and you will find that your journeys, even though they may be wildly different in some ways will, will probably have some similar threads and hopefully you can help each other out with, uh, with that journey.
Jen:
My mom has been there for every needle poke, she's held my hand throughout everything and she's phenomenal but it's, it's meeting others who have this and feeling okay, I'm not alone. I'm not, you know, there's more, it's strength in numbers.
ENTYVIO is a prescription medicine used in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease when certain other medications have not worked well enough or cannot be tolerated.
