A Simplified Way to Prescribe Omnipod® 5
“We now have 90% of covered lives. So, what that means: more than 300 million people in the United States can have access to Omnipod 5. … We do that because Omnipod 5 is accessible through the pharmacy … for our users, it means they’re not locked into a four year period through DME.” —Dr. Trang Ly
Omnipod is available through the pharmacy:
- Your patients can get started today1—more than half of covered Omnipod 5 scripts are filled within 24 hours through the pharmacy2
- The majority of Omnipod 5 customers pay $50 or less per month3
1Only available for users with valid prescription and coverage through their pharmacy benefit. Exact coverage depends on patient’s insurance plan. Upgrades subject to user’s insurance coverage.
