Specialized care for the whole body

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.

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. 

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.

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.
