INTRODUCING OUR NEW

TRICARE SEMAGLUTIDE AND TIRZEPATIDE PROGRAM

Let us handle the paperwork, while you lose the weight.

Recently, TRICARE has started to cover semaglutide and tirzepatide for certain patients for obesity management. As a clinic comprised of all military spouses, we are excited about the potential to start both military retirees and dependents on these extremely effective weight loss medications. To be eligible for our TRICARE semaglutide program, you must meet the following criteria per TRICARE’s Requirements:

  • 18 years or older

  • BMI 30 and over

    OR

  • BMI 27 and over with a chronic medical condition (hypertension, hyperlipidemia, sleep apnea, arthritis, etc)

  • Have a contraindication to or have previously failed a 3 month trial of stimulant weight loss medications in the past (phentermine). If you have not tried phentermine and are a candidate, we will need to trial this for 3 months before semaglutide or tirzepatide can get approved. This is something we can facilitate.

  • Have tried diet changes and exercise for 6+ months

Some notes about prior authorizations:

  • Generally a new prior authorization is required for TRICARE for every dosage of the medication, which means a new prior authorization must be done monthly. It is important to follow up monthly while in the program so can ensure this is completed promptly.

Current patients - please schedule a follow up visit at 360-800-9820 to transition to this program.
