About Oxygen 64889-0001 and its cost

What is this medication? Oxygen labeled with the code 64889-0001 is a prescription medical gas used to provide supplemental oxygen to patients who are unable to get enough oxygen from the air on their own. This medication is essential for treating hypoxemia, which is low oxygen levels in the blood, and is often prescribed for chronic conditions such as pulmonary disease, heart failure, and asthma. It is also used in acute settings to help patients recovering from surgery or those experiencing sudden respiratory distress. The medication is administered through inhalation using equipment like nasal cannulas, face masks, or oxygen tents, and the specific dosage is determined by a physician based on the patient's blood oxygen saturation. It is important to use the medication only as directed, as high concentrations can sometimes be harmful over long periods. Additionally, because oxygen supports combustion, users must ensure that no smoking or open flames are present near the equipment to prevent fire accidents.

Oxygen 64889-0001 is made by Drive Medical Design & Manufacturing. Like most brand-name drugs, it's priced at a high list price — but patients rarely pay that list price. The options above are the real paths most people use to get it affordably.

Common questions

What's the cheapest way to afford Oxygen 64889-0001?

It depends on your insurance. On Medicare, apply for the manufacturer's Patient Assistance Program (PAP) — it gives the drug free if you meet income requirements. With private insurance, the manufacturer copay card usually drops your copay to $0-$25. Uninsured patients should compare the PAP with Cost Plus Drugs cash price.

Can I use a copay card with Medicare for Oxygen 64889-0001?

No — federal law (the Anti-Kickback Statute) prohibits manufacturer copay cards on Medicare, Medicaid, TriCare, and VA prescriptions. But Drive Medical Design & Manufacturing has a separate Patient Assistance Program for Medicare beneficiaries. Check the options above.

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover Oxygen 64889-0001?

Part D coverage varies by plan. We query the CMS Prescription Drug Plan file to show you what percentage of plans cover it and at what tier. For your exact copay, pick "Medicare" above and check your plan's Summary of Benefits, or log in to Medicare.gov.

How long does a Patient Assistance Program take?

Most PAPs take 2-6 weeks from application to first fill. Ask the manufacturer about a "bridge supply" — many will ship 30 days free while your application is being reviewed so you don't go without the drug.

What if I have a high-deductible plan?

For generics, Cost Plus Drugs cash price is often cheaper than your deductible-phase copay. For brand names, the manufacturer copay card almost always wins. A GoodRx coupon can be a last resort for uncovered drugs, but it doesn't count toward your deductible.

Are there charity grants for Eczema?

Charities like HealthWell Foundation, PAN Foundation, Good Days, and the National Organization for Rare Disorders provide copay help for specific conditions. Funds often run out mid-year — apply early. We list the specific grants for your condition in the options above.
