About This Medication

# Wyost Patient Guide: How to Get Wyost at Low or No Cost Wyost (denosumab-bbdz) is a biosimilar medication used to treat osteoporosis in postmenopausal women at high risk for fracture, increase bone mass in men with osteoporosis, and treat glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis.[1][4] Sandoz offers the **Sandoz One Source Patient Support Program** and **Sandoz Patient Assistance Program (SPA)** to help eligible patients access Wyost at low or no cost through copay assistance, financial aid for uninsured/underinsured, and other support services.[1][2][4][5][7][8] ## About Wyost and Why Assistance Matters Wyost is a subcutaneous injection given every 6 months by a healthcare provider. It's a biosimilar to Prolia (denosumab), offering the same efficacy at potentially lower cost. Like Prolia, Wyost has the **same Medicare Part B coverage** – no prior authorization or step edits required, with WAC-based reimbursement.[2] However, high out-of-pocket costs can be a barrier. Sandoz programs bridge this gap, providing **copay cards** (as low as $0 for eligible commercially insured patients), free medication for uninsured/underinsured, benefit verification, prior auth help, and nurse support.[1][2][4][5] ## Who Qualifies for Sandoz Wyost Assistance? ### Copay Assistance (Commercially Insured) Eligible if you have **commercial insurance** (not government programs).

Program credits toward deductibles/copays/coinsurance but can't be used for copay accumulators/maximizers.[2][4] ### Patient Assistance Program (Uninsured/Underinsured) For patients with **limited or no insurance** meeting **income guidelines** (specific FPL % not publicly disclosed; call to verify).[5][8] Sandoz Patient Assistance (SPA) provides free medication.
