My current insurance doesn’t cover the medications that Calibrate clinicians prescribe. What types of plans typically do?

At Calibrate we have a team of insurance navigation experts to help you access an initial GLP-1 medication prescription - typically around $25/month or less (after any deductible is met). We’ve helped tens of thousands of members access affordable GLP-1

We’re currently not able to accept members who are uninsured, or who are covered by government insurance (including Medicare, Medicaid, and Tricare), or with Kaiser plans. We’ve found that these plans do not typically cover the medications that your Calibrate medical team will prescribe.    

If you want to join Calibrate and are looking to sign up for a different insurance plan during Open Enrollment, here are characteristics of plans that typically cover the medications that Calibrate clinicians prescribe: 

• Commercial insurance (e.g. Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, etc.) that you receive through an employer (excluding Kaiser plans)
• If you choose a high deductible plan, choose one with a deductible that you'll be able to meet (you’ll need to pay through any deductible before your plan will start covering the medication) 

If you’d like to confirm that your commercial/employer insurance plan covers the medications that Calibrate clinicians order/prescribe before joining Calibrate, you can reach out directly to your insurer and ask the following question: 

• Does my plan cover GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide) medications? If not, is step therapy an option?
