$175 a month. Cash pay. No insurance.
The $175 monthly membership is cash-pay clinical care with Alabama-licensed physicians, nurse practitioners (CRNPs), and Alabama staff. It covers scheduled visits — the initial visit in month 1, a month-2 follow-up if medication is prescribed, then visits every 3 months — plus ongoing education and team support. It does not include the cash-pay cost of medication. If a clinician decides a prescription is appropriate, brand-name Zepbound®, Foundayo™, or Wegovy® is sent to LillyDirect® or NovoCare®. You pay the manufacturer. They ship to your Alabama address. Optional dietitian and pharmacist support is extra. We do not bill insurance.
Passing the website screening quiz does not waive the $175 charge for the initial visit. That visit is a paid clinical evaluation. If the prescriber determines you are not a candidate to start brand-name medication, the $175 for that visit remains due and is non-refundable except as required by law. Ongoing visits and membership for treatment would not continue.

Review of medication tolerance, side effects, early progress, and any needed adjustments. Focus is on safety, adherence, and questions as your body adjusts.

Passing the eligibility questionnaire and completing intake do not guarantee that you will be accepted as a patient, that treatment will continue, or that a medication will be prescribed. Eligibility for care is determined only after clinical review by our physicians and nurse practitioners, in their independent professional judgment. The initial visit is a paid clinical evaluation. Payment for that visit is due even if you are not deemed eligible for ongoing treatment or a prescription, and is non-refundable except as required by law.
