About This Medication
# Ascendis Patient Assistance Program Patient Guide: How to Get YORVIPATH at Low or No Cost ## About YORVIPATH YORVIPATH (palopegteriparatide) is a prescription medication used to treat chronic hypoparathyroidism. It works by replacing parathyroid hormone that your body isn't producing in sufficient quantities. YORVIPATH is administered as a subcutaneous injection, and your healthcare provider will help determine if it's the right treatment for your condition. ## About the Ascendis Patient Assistance Program The Ascendis Patient Assistance Program (A.P.A.P), also known as the Ascendis Signature Access Program (A·S·A·P), is designed to help eligible patients access YORVIPATH at reduced or no cost. This program provides comprehensive support beyond just medication assistance, including insurance verification, device training, and reimbursement support. ## Who Qualifies for This Program? You may be eligible for the Ascendis Patient Assistance Program if you meet these criteria: - **You are uninsured or underinsured** and cannot afford your medication - **You have a valid prescription** from a licensed healthcare provider in the United States or a U.S. territory - **You are being treated for an approved indication** of chronic hypoparathyroidism - **You meet income eligibility requirements** (specific thresholds are not publicly disclosed but are evaluated on a case-by-case basis) - **You have not previously received reimbursement** for YORVIPATH through this program ### Important Insurance Restrictions If you have any of the following types of coverage, you generally cannot use the co-pay assistance program, though you may still qualify for other support services: - **Medicaid** (unless you have applied and been denied enrollment, including exhaustion of all appeals) - **Medicare** (unless you are Medicare-eligible without Part D coverage and have applied for and been denied Extra Help/Low Income Subsidy) - **Veterans Affairs (VA) prescription benefits** (unless you have applied and been denied enrollment) - **Military coverage (DOD, TRICARE, or Medigap)** If you have Medicare and no Part D coverage, you can apply for Extra Help/Low Income Subsidy by contacting the Social Security Administration at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) or visiting ssa.gov/benefits/medicare/prescriptionhelp/. ## Income Eligibility While Ascendis Pharma does not publicly disclose specific income thresholds, the program evaluates your financial situation to determine eligibility. Income verification will be required as part of your application. Your income and insurance status will be periodically reconfirmed, and changes in either may affect your continued eligibility. ## How to Apply ### Step 1: Get a Prescription Your healthcare provider must write a prescription for YORVIPATH for an approved indication. Your provider will also need to complete the A·S·A·P Enrollment Form. ### Step 2: Submit Your Enrollment Form Your healthcare provider's office will submit the completed A·S·A·P Enrollment Form to Ascendis by: - **Email:** info@ascendissupport.com - **Fax:** 1-888-436-0193 If you fax your paperwork, you will receive a fax confirmation with a case ID. If you do not receive this confirmation fax, Ascendis did not receive your initial submission. ### Step 3: Gather Required Documentation Have the following documents ready: - **Valid prescription** from your licensed healthcare provider - **Income verification** (such as recent tax returns, pay stubs, or benefit statements) - **Insurance documentation** (copies of front and back of medical and pharmacy insurance cards, or documentation of being uninsured) - **Proof of identity** ### Step 4: Receive Your Welcome Call You can expect a welcome call from your A·S·A·P Case Manager within 2-3 business days. **Important:** Save the A·S·A·P phone number **1-844-442-7236** and answer calls from this number to confirm shipping details and avoid delays. ### Step 5: Insurance Verification and Authorization Your A·S·A·P representative will verify your insurance coverage and eligibility. If you have insurance, they will work with your insurance company to obtain authorization. If authorization is denied, A·S·A·P can provide appeal assistance. ### Step 6: Receive Your Medication Once approved, your prescription will be sent to one of Ascendis's specialty pharmacy partners: - **Orsini Specialty Pharmacy:** 1-888-204-7802 (Fax: 1-877-471-8175) - **PANTHERx Rare Pharmacy:** 1-888-379-1821 (Fax: 1-877-914-0604) Your medication will be shipped directly to your home. You may receive calls from these pharmacies to confirm shipping details. ## Timeline and Delivery You can expect your welcome call from A·S·A·P within 2-3 business days of enrollment. The exact timeline from enrollment to medication delivery depends on insurance authorization (if applicable) and pharmacy processing. Your A·S·A·P Case Manager will keep you informed throughout the process. YORVIPATH is delivered via specialty pharmacy to your home address. ## What If Your Application Is Denied? If you are denied enrollment in the Ascendis Patient Assistance Program, you may reapply if you experience a change in circumstances that affects your eligibility. Changes might include: - Loss of insurance coverage - Significant decrease in income - Change in employment status - Approval or denial of other assistance programs (such as Medicaid or Medicare Extra Help) Contact your A·S·A·P Case Manager or call 1-844-442-7236 to discuss your options. ## Reauthorization and Ongoing Support Your income and insurance eligibility will be periodically reconfirmed.
