Set a purchasing budget, not a use schedule
The two-box female example assumes an established plan to purchase 60 refills in the month. It is a fixed purchase budget, not a promise that this quantity lasts a month. Use your actual requirements and available inventory to plan purchases, and follow the applicable Instructions for Use.
For this example, the product line in your cash budget is $298 for Medoy or $511.50 for the PureWick™ brand. Add separate lines for applicable tax, shipping, and any needed accessories. These figures exclude a collection system and other separately purchased equipment.
Use the seller's final checkout total when deciding what you will pay. For other quantities, our refill cost guide covers unit-price rounding and whole-box purchase costs. The 30-count box guide covers inventory planning.
Compare self-pay with a written insurance quote
Medoy purchases are self-pay. We do not bill Medicare, Medicaid, or private insurance.
If you are considering an insurance-based supply option elsewhere, ask your plan and the proposed supplier for a written estimate for the exact product and quantity. Ask them to identify:
- The product, supplier, quantity, and period the quote covers.
- Whether that specific purchase is covered and any outstanding requirements.
- Your estimated payment, including any deductible, copayment, or coinsurance.
- Separate charges and circumstances that could change the estimate.
Compare that estimated out-of-pocket amount with the final self-pay checkout total for your intended order. Keep the dates and purchase conditions with both figures. Confirm reimbursement questions with your plan before buying; a cash purchase does not guarantee reimbursement.
