Yes, insurance policies, including Medicaid, do cover Ozempic, but it's important to be aware that the eligibility criteria have become more stringent. Coverage is often primarily available for patients diagnosed with diabetes. To determine if you qualify for Ozempic under your insurance or Medicaid, consulting with your primary care provider is essential. However, even with their support, there's no guaranteed approval for coverage. For individuals who may not meet the insurance or Medicaid criteria for Ozempic, there are alternative pathways to consider. Many people opt for Direct Cash Pay providers who collaborate with reputable compounding pharmacies. These pharmacies offer alternatives to Ozempic, such as semaglutide, a GLP-1 agonist similar in function to Ozempic and often serving as a generic equivalent. At our med spa, we have seen many guests achieve excellent results with semaglutide treatments. However, it's crucial to conduct thorough research before proceeding. Not all providers or GLP-1 compounding pharmacies offer the same level of quality or service. I strongly recommend finding a provider and pharmacy that you trust and which have positive recommendations. This careful selection will ensure you receive the best possible care and outcomes from your treatment. Best regards, Rachael Degurse, MD
