Here in the Netherlands my insulin costs including all other medical necessities are about 1600 euro/year. Do note, this can differ substantially per person. edit: the cost to the end user is the required 385 euro. Here it is happening as well: Novo Nordic set the cost of the - the new - Tresiba insulin higher than the covered amount, it simply wasn't offered as there were fortunately enough alternatives available though the stuff actually works better. A few years back they finally gave in and now it is still sold at the premium price but the apothecaries get back the amount not covered by insurance from the distributor (and I guess thus Novo). Which basically tells me they can offer it for that price but don't want to and hope the covered price goes up (not likely).
