Dose-escalation timeline & monthly cost
Semaglutide is titrated up over the first 4–5 months to reach your therapeutic dose. Our cost stays flat through the whole ramp.
| Month | Typical dose | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Month 1 | 0.25 mg / week (intro) | $199 |
| Month 2 | 0.5 mg / week | $199 |
| Month 3 | 1.0 mg / week | $199 |
| Month 4 | 1.7 mg / week | $199 |
| Month 5+ | Up to 2.4 mg / week | $199 |
| 6-month total | Full titration | $1,194 |
Dose schedule is the typical published ramp; your titration is set by Dr. Bryant based on response and tolerance.
Queens vs Manhattan vs telehealth-only
MD-supervised in-person or telehealth. Queens overhead.
Higher overhead, often NP-administered, dose upcharges common.
Telehealth-only — no in-person exam, no labs in clinic, async messaging only.
When semaglutide IS covered
- Type 2 diabetes diagnosis — Ozempic is generally covered with prior authorization.
- BMI > 30 + comorbidity — Some NY plans cover Wegovy for weight loss with strict prior auth (sleep apnea, hypertension, etc.).
- HSA / FSA — Eligible if prescribed for a covered diagnosis.
If you want to try the insurance route first, our primary-care team can submit the prior auth and run the labs. If denied, the $199 program is ready to go same-week.
