Weight Loss Programs

There’s a shocking truth hidden beneath the glitz and glamour associated with many of today’s most popular weight loss options:
The cost is outrageous!

Most consumers are completely unaware of the costs that come with popular programs like Nutrisystem, Jenny Craig, and Medifast. That’s because most of these popular programs don’t want you to know the true costs until you’ve already committed!
Even more shocking is the fact that most insurance companies don’t cover the cost of weight loss programs. That’s because most insurance companies view weight loss efforts to be “elective” procedures, and that means their costs are typically not covered under most plans.
Having to pay out of pocket directly impacts your household budget, so it’s extremely critical that your weight loss program is the most cost-effective program out there. Thanks to the recent class of weight loss medication, it is now easier and less expensive than other traditional options!

Financing A New Way of Losing Weight

Although coverage for weight loss medications is not widely available, check with your insurance provider as you might be covered. If not, it is important to understand the costs and financing options to help with paying for your weight loss journey. Our medicine never has monthly membership fees, contracts, annual fees, or hidden costs.

I have employer-covered and/or private insurance

Employers decide on prescription benefits for their employees so it is important to consult your individual plan. However, don’t be discouraged if your company’s plan doesn’t include coverage for weight-loss medications.

Unfortunately, Medicare does not cover medicines for obesity. There may be some select Medigap and Medicare Advantage plans for retirees that do offer coverage. If you have one of these plans, please check with your administrator.

Each state decides what prescription drugs to cover through Medicaid, so you’ll need to contact your state’s Medicaid office.

The VA will cover obesity management. Head to your local Veterans Administration provider office to discuss the obesity medication options.
