This topic is about someone who has an ileostomy and prefers using Coloplast ostomy supplies because they work best for them. However, they are facing a challenge because their insurance does not cover much of the cost, making it difficult to afford these supplies. They are looking for practical ways to get Coloplast products at a lower out-of-pocket cost. Here are some helpful suggestions and insights shared by others:

1. A forum member is willing to donate unused Coloplast items. They suggest that the person specify the exact size or product they need.

2. In the U.S., there is a resource called OstoGroup (ostogroup.com). This is a non-profit organization that provides ostomy products at significantly reduced prices. They primarily help people without insurance but can often assist those with limited coverage as well.

3. To extend the life of pouches, consider using Colo-Majic flushable pouch liners.
- You can request free samples at colostomymajic.com.
- Boxes of 300 liners are available for purchase at USD 63.95 from cmostomtysupplies.com.
- Although these liners are designed for colostomies, some users have found that they work for ileostomies too. This can help reduce the number of full pouch changes needed, thereby decreasing overall pouch usage.
