The spread

3.5× estimated

Medicare paid 3.5× what pharmacies pay.

Part D averages every strength and form sold under “Octreotide Acetate” into one figure, so it is not specific to this NDC.

Cost-plus estimate

$7.91 estimated

$2.53 + $0.38 (15%) + $5.00 fee per fill = $7.91

This is a model, not a price any pharmacy quoted. Shipping is not included. For a pack this cheap, the $5.00 fee is most of the estimate. How it is worked out

Questions

Why is the comparison with Medicare for OCTREOTIDE ACET 100 MCG/ML VL labelled estimated?
Beyond what the card shows, the records give these reasons: The Part D figure covers 2024-01-01 to 2024-12-31; the NADAC price is from the file of 2026-10-14. Part D spending basis, as the Part D record states it: Part D 2024 average spend per dosage unit for Octreotide Acetate / Octreotide Acetate: all makers, strengths, forms and routes combined, claim-weighted; gross cost incl. dispensing fees and patient pay, before rebates. Unit taken as NADAC's ML. Joined on generic name.
Why does this page start at 1 mL?
NADAC prices this product per ML. In the FDA NDC Directory, 5 of this product’s NDCs are wholesale packs of identical units, so OpenBill counts one unit of each; for example, NDC 00641-6175-10 (“10 VIAL, SINGLE-DOSE in 1 CARTON (0641-6175-10) / 1 mL in 1 VIAL, SINGLE-DOSE (0641-6175-01)”) is a carton of 10 vials, 10 mL in all. It does not list one of this product’s NDCs. So the card starts at one unit: 1 ML. Change it to match your prescription.
