Osto Group
Provides donated ostomy supplies to uninsured people for the cost of shipping and handling.
Best for
Uninsured ostomy patients who cannot afford pouches, wafers, and barriers.
Why Kave includes this
Ostomy supplies are consumed daily and are not optional, and an uninsured person can face hundreds of dollars a month for them. Almost nothing else fills this gap. Kave lists the two real constraints honestly: it is donated stock, and you pay shipping.
- Expected cost
- Supplies are donated; recipients pay a shipping and handling charge.
- Insurance requirement
- For uninsured people.
- Who qualifies
- Uninsured ostomy patients in the United States. Availability depends on donated stock.
- Where it is available
- Nationwide (United States)
- How you use it
- Online or by phone
- Languages
- English
Limitations Kave wants you to know about
- Donated inventory — your specific brand, size, or product may not be in stock.
- You pay shipping and handling.
- For uninsured people; if you have coverage, an appeal is usually the better route.
- Check expiry dates and confirm product suitability with your ostomy nurse.

Geographic reach is deliberately worth only five points, so a strong local resource is not pushed out by a weak national one. Read the methodology.
