Yes and no. We don’t take it ourselves but we will help get your GLP-1 weight loss medications covered, if possible. The process for approval for GLP1’s can be challenging so think of us as your insurance concierge. Your monthly membership fee is not covered by insurance, but you can, however, use your HSA/FSA card.
Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) analog. GLP-1 is a hormone naturally produced in the small intestine that stimulates insulin secretion and inhibits glucagon secretion, thereby lowering blood sugar. There are many forms of semagltuide in the market like Ozempic and Wegovy.
Studies show that semaglutide reduces appetite, improves control of eating, and reduces food cravings in addition to improving glycemic control. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) incretin hormone that helps the pancreas release insulin, which in turn helps the body control blood sugar levels.
You will start on a lower dose and then titrate up every 4 weeks. It’s important to let your body get used to the medication before upping your dose. Many people will feel less hunger and reduced cravings within the first 24-48 hours. The best method for losing weight is slow and steady. It’s important to focus on upgrading your lifestyle habits to complement with the medication.
Possible side effects of Semaglutide:
- Diarrhea
- Constipation
- Headaches
- Nausea
- Bloating
- Heartburn
- Stomach discomfort
- Fullness
Due to the beneficial lifestyle changes Semaglutide promotes, it is possible to stay at a consistent weight when you get off of the medication. However, if you go back to poor eating and lifestyle habits, it is likely that weight gain will occur.
To experience the best results possible we recommend incorporating healthier eating habits and moving your body. Prioritizing protein, healthy fats and fiber as well as reducing the amount of processed foods is highly recommended.
GLP-1 medications are not included but your Care Team will work with you to get your medication covered by insurance. If insurance covers your medication, you may still be responsible for a copay.
The recommended maximum dosage is 50 units of the compounded GLP-1 medication. If you titrate past this, you will be charged your monthly subscription price plus an additional vial at an ala carte rate. All ala carte vial sizes should be consulted with the provider and case manager. Please contact your case manager for this pricing.
