Financial Assistance
We understand that paying for treatment can sometimes be challenging. That’s why Sage Central provides financial assistance options to eligible patients. Once you are enrolled in Sage Central, you will be automatically enrolled in the financial assistance programs for which you may be eligible. Your continued eligibility is subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions of the financial assistance programs. See details below.
-
The program is designed to help reduce a patient’s eligible out-of-pocket copay costs related to the drug. Subject to certain terms and conditions, commercially insured patients may be eligible for copay assistance to help reduce their out-of-pocket, drug-related costs up to $15,000—regardless of income level.*
If you are eligible, the ZULRESSO Drug Copay Assistance Program will help reduce your out-of-pocket, drug-related costs for ZULRESSO up to $15,000.
* To be eligible to participate in the ZULRESSO® Drug Copay Assistance Program (the “Drug Copay Program”), the patient must: (i) Have private, commercial health insurance; (ii) Reside in the United States or a U.S. territory; (iii) Be treated by a healthcare professional in the United States or a U.S. territory; (iv) Be 15 years of age or older; and (v) Be prescribed ZULRESSO® (brexanolone) injection for an on-label diagnosis. The Drug Copay Program will cover the patient’s out-of-pocket costs (i.e., deductible, copay, or coinsurance obligations) for ZULRESSO up to a maximum of $15,000. The treating healthcare provider must itemize the out-of-pocket cost for the drug on the Copay Program Reimbursement Form for the patient to be eligible to receive financial assistance under the Drug Copay Program. The patient may not participate in the Drug Copay Program if the entire cost of the patients’ ZULRESSO prescription is reimbursable by her private insurance plan or other private health or pharmacy benefit programs. The patient may not participate in the Drug Copay Program if the patient is eligible for a state or federally funded insurance program, including but not limited to Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE, Veterans Affairs health care, a state prescription drug assistance program, or the Government Health Insurance Plan available in Puerto Rico (formerly known as “La Reforma de Salud”). This offer is not valid for cash paying patients. The patient must deduct the value of assistance received from the Drug Copay Program from any reimbursement request submitted to her private insurance plan, either directly by the patient or on her behalf. The patient is responsible for reporting her participation in the Drug Copay Program to any private insurer, health plan, or other third party who pays for or reimburses any part of the prescription. The patient should not participate in the Drug Copay Program if her insurer or health plan prohibits use of manufacturer coupons/copay assistance. The patient savings under the Drug Copay Program cannot be combined with any other savings, free trial or similar offer for the drug. Claims must be submitted in a timely manner. An Explanation of Benefits (EOB) from the patient’s private insurance must be submitted within 180 days of the date of service for the patient to receive out-of-pocket assistance. The EOB must reflect the patient’s out-of-pocket cost for ZULRESSO and submission of the claim by the patient’s physician for the cost of the medication. The Drug Copay Program is not health insurance. This offer is not conditioned on any past or future purchases. Data related to the patient’s participation in the Drug Copay Program may be collected, analyzed, and shared with Sage Therapeutics, Inc. (“Sage”) for market research and other purposes related to assessing Sage’s patient support programs. Data shared with Sage will be aggregated and de-identified; it will be combined with data related to other Drug Copay Program use and will not identify the patient. In the event that the Drug Copay Program is terminated, the EOB must be submitted no more than 90 days after the termination date and EOB must be within the patient’s enrollment dates. Sage reserves the right to rescind, revoke or amend this offer without notice.

Infusion Information
We want you to have a positive experience during your treatment, and being prepared ahead of time can certainly help. You can read the FAQs to learn more about what to expect.
Before starting treatment, talk to your doctor about the benefits and risks of ZULRESSO, and ask any questions you may have.
-
An infusion is when medicine is given directly into a vein.
-
ZULRESSO is given to you by a continuous intravenous (IV) infusion into your vein over the course of 2.5 days. Because of the risk of serious harm resulting from excessive sedation or sudden loss of consciousness during treatment, ZULRESSO is only available through a restricted program called the ZULRESSO REMS in which a healthcare provider will carefully monitor you at a certified healthcare facility.
Also, someone will need to care for your child(ren) and be in the room with you if you are with your child(ren) during the infusion.
-
Sage Central has financial assistance programs for eligible patients to help reduce the out-of-pocket costs related to your ZULRESSO treatment. Once you are enrolled in Sage Central, you will be automatically enrolled in the financial assistance programs for which you may be eligible. Your continued eligibility is subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions for the financial assistance program(s) in which you are enrolled. A Sage Central Navigator can help you understand your insurance and coverage options.
