Testimonials

What our community is saying

Great Experience

As a retired gastroenterologist, I have worked with the expert team for the past several weeks and made significant headway in combating diabetes, hyperlipemia, and metabolic syndrome. The availability of talent and convenience of telemedicine are outstanding features of 9amHealth. I am excited about working together with my team.

Ira Shafran, MD, 9amHealth member

Very competent Care Team

Love how everyone is so nice. This program is a blessing to me for sure. Thanks, 9amHealth.

Daniel, 9amHealth member

I don’t need to leave the house

This company is unbelievable. No doctor I’ve known has ever provided such incredible assistance and care, and I don’t need to leave the house. I am beyond impressed and grateful for 9amHealth.

Kimberly Craft, 9amHealth member

Fast & wonderful

Wonderful doctors, always on the alert to answer your questions. My shipment was fast and on time.

Shamilla DaSouza, 9amHealth member

Great service!

I work in the healthcare profession, I am very reluctant to go to a physician, because it’s so hard to get an appointment! Got my lab work done within a week and had medications that I probably should’ve been on for the last 10 years. So convenient I really wish this had been available a long time ago.

What a time saver

9amHealth was easy to deal with and sent out my meds very promptly. The 3 month-supply is a time saver compared to picking up a one-month supply at my local pharmacy and dealing with frequent refill requests through my doctor's office.

FAQs

We always have time for questions

Can I use my insurance to cover 9amHealth?

We currently accept the following PPO plans:

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas
Blue Shield of California
Anthem of California
Aetna in Texas
Aetna in California
UHC in California
UHC in Texas

If covered by any of the above plans, you may be eligible for care and coverage of the 9amHealth membership fee as part of your benefits. We cannot guarantee eligibility. We are actively working on expanding our insurance coverage. Additionally, if your insurance covers your medications, copays may apply.

How much does 9amHealth cost?

The 9amHealth membership is $149 per month, and if you have insurance, it might be covered completely. Insurance copays may apply. You can also use your HSA or FSA account for any out-of-pocket costs.

Medication costs are not included in the monthly membership price. If your insurance does not cover your medications, you may be eligible to take advantage of certain manufacturer savings programs. Please ask the 9amHealth Care Team for more information.

How do labs work?

Based on your medical history, our Care Team will recommend a lab draw. If available in your area, we can schedule a home draw. Alternatively we will find the nearest Patient Service Center and will help you to schedule your appointment. Lab results are securely being sent back to 9amHealth, and our Care Team will review them with you.

Why do I need to sign up for a monthly membership if I only need a prescription?

Our monthly membership is designed to ensure we provide comprehensive and personalized care. While you may initially need a prescription, our Care Team will follow up with you regularly to monitor your health and adjust dosages as necessary. A recent study from Blue Health Intelligence notes that some 58% of patients discontinue GLP-1 medications within 12 weeks because they didn't see the results they expected. We'll help create a treatment plan including medications you need to succeed long-term. Other ongoing care could involve ongoing lab tests or other medical evaluations. Continuous care is crucial in managing conditions like obesity effectively. By signing up for a monthly membership, you're investing in whole-body care beyond just a prescription.

How will I receive my medications?

In general, we’ll send your prescription to your preferred pharmacy. For refills, simply contact our Care Team.

Does 9amHealth prescribe medications for weight loss?

Based on your medical history, lab tests, and insurance coverage, our Care Team will determine if medications are appropriate and which medication is most effective for you. For members who qualify for weight loss medications, our toolkit includes branded medications such as GLP-1 receptor agonists (Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound) and generic medications approved by the FDA. We can help navigate insurance approvals.

For GLP-1 medications approved for weight loss (Wegovy, Zepbound, Saxenda), you must meet specific diagnostic criteria such as a BMI greater than 30 or greater than 27 with co-conditions.
If you qualify for and are prescribed Zepbound for obesity or excess weight with weight-related medical problems, there are two options: the Zepbound Autoinjector and Zepbound Vials. Our Care Team will help you understand the difference between each option, including out-of-pocket cost considerations based on your insurance coverage.
