About This Medication
# DURYSTA Savings Program Patient Guide: How to Get DURYSTA at Low or No Cost ## About DURYSTA DURYSTA (bimatoprost intracameral implant) is a prescription medication used to treat glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Unlike eye drops that require daily application, DURYSTA is a tiny implant placed directly into the eye during a brief in-office procedure. It provides sustained medication delivery to help lower eye pressure and reduce the risk of vision loss from glaucoma. ## Who Qualifies for the DURYSTA Savings Program The DURYSTA Savings Program is designed to help eligible patients afford this treatment. To qualify, you must meet ALL of the following requirements: - Be at least 18 years old - Be a resident of the United States, Puerto Rico, or Guam - Have **commercial insurance coverage** that includes DURYSTA - Not be enrolled in Medicare, Medicaid, or other federal or state healthcare programs - Not be a cash-paying patient - Not have Medicare Advantage coverage combined with employer-sponsored retiree benefits ## Insurance Requirements This program is **only for commercially-insured patients**. Your insurance plan must specifically cover DURYSTA as a medical benefit (not a pharmacy benefit). The program does not apply to patients with: - Medicare coverage - Medicaid coverage - State pharmaceutical assistance programs - Private indemnity or HMO plans that fully reimburse prescription drug costs - Medicare Advantage plans if you're also enrolled in an employer-sponsored retiree health plan If you're unsure whether your commercial plan covers DURYSTA, ask your eye doctor's office to run a benefit verification before your procedure. ## Cost Assistance If you qualify, **eligible patients may pay as little as $0 for each eye**, up to one DURYSTA implant per eye. The exact amount you pay depends on your specific insurance plan's coverage and your out-of-pocket costs. ## How to Enroll Enrolling in the DURYSTA Savings Program is straightforward: 1. **Ask your eye doctor** to enroll you in the program. Your doctor's office handles the enrollment process—you don't need to apply separately. 2. **Provide required information** to your doctor's office, including your insurance details and confirmation that you meet eligibility criteria. 3. **Sign the enrollment form** confirming you understand the program terms and that your information is accurate. 4. **Receive confirmation** from your doctor's office that you're enrolled before your DURYSTA procedure. ## Required Documentation Your doctor's office will need to collect and submit the following documents to process your savings: - Completed DURYSTA Savings Program enrollment form - Your insurance Explanation of Benefits (EOB) for DURYSTA - DURYSTA Reimbursement Request Form - Documentation from your physician's office showing: - The product code - The amount you paid out-of-pocket - Your FDA-approved diagnosis (glaucoma or ocular hypertension) ## Timeline and Processing Once your doctor's office submits all required documentation, here's what to expect: - **Submission deadline**: Claims must be submitted within 365 days of your DURYSTA procedure - **Processing time**: Estimated 3 days for ACH (electronic) transfer or 2-4 weeks for check payment - **Reimbursement method**: Your doctor's office receives reimbursement directly ## What If Your Application Is Denied? If you don't qualify for the DURYSTA Savings Program, you may have other options: - **Contact Allergan EyeCue**: This comprehensive resource provides 24/7 reimbursement assistance and can help identify other patient financial support options - **Check with your insurance**: Ask your insurance company about coverage options or appeals - **Speak with your eye doctor**: Your doctor's office may know of additional assistance programs or payment plans ## Important Information About Program Changes If your insurance coverage changes at any time—for example, if you become eligible for Medicare or Medicaid—you must immediately call the program at **1-833-DURYSTA (833-387-9782), option 2** to stop your participation. Continuing to use the program after your eligibility ends could result in complications with your coverage. ## Contact Information For questions about the DURYSTA Savings Program: - **Phone**: 1-833-DURYSTA (833-387-9782), option 2 - **Website**: DurystaSavingsProgram.com - **Reimbursement support**: AllerganEyeCue.com Your eye doctor's office can also answer questions about enrollment and eligibility. ## Important Disclaimer This guide provides general information about the DURYSTA Savings Program.
