How Insurance
Coverage Works

Insurance paperwork is our job. Here is what to expect.

Coverage Check

We check your coverage before your first consultation, so you know what your plan covers.

Prior Authorization

We submit the prior authorization for brand-name medicine and run it as a concierge service: the paperwork, the follow-up, and the appeal if your plan says no.

Clear Costs

Any copay is collected at check-in. If your plan will not cover the medicine, a self-pay plan is an option.

Frequently Asked
Questions

Have other questions? Contact us at support@aayuwell.com

What insurance plans do you accept?

Most major plans, including PPO, POS and select HMO plans. We check your coverage before your consultation. If your plan does not cover the medicine, self-pay plans start at $200 every 4 weeks, or $475 for 12 weeks.

How much will I pay out of pocket?

It depends on your plan, your deductible and your copay. Your consultations are billed to your plan and any copay is collected at check-in. What you pay for medicine depends on your plan's pharmacy benefit, and we help you apply for manufacturer copay assistance.

What if my insurance denies coverage?

Our team appeals. If it is still denied, we talk through every alternative together, including a self-pay plan.

Do you handle prior authorizations?

Yes. We submit it after your consultation and run it as a concierge service: the paperwork, the follow-up with your plan, and the appeal if your plan says no. How long it takes depends on your plan.

Can I switch between insurance and self-pay?

Yes. If your coverage changes, you can move between brand-name medicine through your plan and a self-pay plan. Your provider helps you choose.

Your journey to safe, sustainable weight loss

Think of it like building a house: a strong foundation first, then something that lasts. Your care moves through four phases, with medical care, nutrition and movement in each one.

Everyone’s journey is a little different. Most people take 18 months to two years to reach their best weight and build habits that last. Here is how the phases work:

  • 24 Week
  • 63 Week
  • 92 Week
  • 104 Week
Leaner
6-9 MONTHS

Your care team builds your plan with you: medicine if it is right for you, food that fits your life, and movement that protects your muscle. The goal is to end up leaner and healthier, not thinner but softer.

We start with a low dose and raise it step by step, based on how you feel, to keep side effects low.

Our registered dietitian helps you turn your plan into meals you can make: protein first at every meal, and portions that fit your new appetite.

Strength work twice a week and regular walks, because muscle is what keeps your metabolism up while the weight comes off.

RESULTS

Most of the change in weight happens in this phase, while the first habits take hold.

Healthier
ABOUT 6 MONTHS

Once your dose is settled, the focus turns to habits you can keep. Regular consultations with your provider and dietitian track your progress and work through what gets in the way.

Results

Habits take root: protein at every meal, strength work, steady sleep and routines that fit your life.

Empowered
HEALTHIER HABITS

With your habits in place, you keep going with lighter support: the app, the weekly curriculum and your care team when you need them.

Beyond Medication
6-8 MONTHS

When you are ready, and only if it is right for you, we lower the dose slowly while your habits carry more of the work. The goal is weight that stays off.
