Was wondering if she could just get a Dr in her town to prescribe Wegovy and use a co pay.


Wegovy is strictly for weight loss. So will depend on her insurance. If her insurance doesn’t cover weight loss meds the one pen costs like $1600 a month

Insurance companies are also cracking down on ozempic. I’ve been on it for months and now and was able to get it covered due to a slightly elevated A1C and PCOS insulin resistance. No more. Starting Jan 1 you have to strictly have a type 2 diabetes diagnosis to get it covered by most insurance companies now. Without insurance it’s like $800-900 a month

Good people have been abusing it, I've had so many people bragging about their weight loss from taking it. Sad part is once they lose that pen they will gain it back because there is no other change.

One found a doctor who wrote a script even though she isn't a diabetic, total insurance fraud. Alas, probably no different than doctors prescribing ADHD medicines for kids who are just a bit active.
