How to Check Your Specific Plan in New Hampshire
Coverage varies significantly between plans, even within New Hampshire. Here is how to find out exactly what your plan covers:
Call Your Insurance
Call the number on the back of your insurance card. Ask specifically: "Does my plan cover semaglutide (Wegovy) or tirzepatide (Zepbound) for weight loss?" Get the answer in writing.
Check the Formulary
Request your plan's drug formulary (the list of covered medications). Look for Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, or Mounjaro. Note the tier level — lower tiers mean lower copays.
Ask About Prior Authorization
Most plans require prior authorization for GLP-1 drugs. Ask what documentation your doctor needs to submit — typically BMI records and proof of comorbidities.
Explore Alternatives
If your plan denies coverage, ask about step therapy requirements, appeal processes, or switching to a plan that covers GLP-1. Telehealth is always available as a cash-pay option.
