Frequently Asked Questions

What is GLP-1 and how does it help with weight loss?

GLP-1 medications work by imitating a natural hormone that regulates insulin and appetite. They help reduce cravings and improve blood sugar control, which can lead to weight loss when combined with diet and activity changes.

How can I get prescribed Ozempic® or another weight-loss medication?

A licensed MinuteClinic® provider will evaluate your health history, medications, BMI (Body Mass Index) and lifestyle. If you’re a good candidate, they can prescribe GLP-1 medication either in person or virtually.

Is semaglutide covered by insurance?

Insurance coverage can vary. Some plans cover semaglutide for weight loss, while others may require prior authorization. Our staff can help you determine your benefits.

How much does semaglutide cost with or without insurance?

Your out-of-pocket cost depends on your insurance and eligibility for savings programs. Our team can guide you through the process and help you understand your financial options.

How do I know if I’m eligible for weight-loss medication?

Your provider will look at your full health profile, including your medical history, current medications, BMI (Body Mass Index) and lifestyle habits to see if GLP-1 treatment is a good fit for you.
