Palos Urgent Care
What weight loss medicine costs, explained before you start.
Your cost has two parts: the visits and the medicine. We check your plan before you start, so you know the cost before your first dose.
What weight loss medicine costs
Visits are billed like any other doctor visit. The medicine is billed separately, and its cost depends on the prescription, the dose and whether you are eligible for a manufacturer savings program. Coverage for the medicine varies widely by plan.
What affects your cost
- Whether your plan covers weight loss medicine
- Which medicine is prescribed, and the dose
