Op here. How can you tell if a P.A. would be required?

You need to check your insurance coverage. Mine is very specific about step therapy, quantity limits and authorization.

Plans may also specify the conditions for which it’s covered. Some plans are very restrictive, meaning T2 diabetes only, and other plans are more inclusive.

+1. My plan will only cover for weight loss for people over a certain BMI.

Gaining again, despite normal food consumption and SO much inflammation.

OR does anyone know of a telehealth place to get compounded Tirzepetide that isn't crazy expensive??

So…your question is: “How do I commit healthcare/insurance fraud?”

Compounded tirzepatide is a good option for people who don’t have insurance coverage or who have high copays. It’s not fraud; who hurt you?

This isn't going to happen since it's indicated for diabetes. Even if you found some unethical doctor to prescribe it for you, your insurance company isn't going to cover it if you don't have diabetes.

OP here. It's not unethical to prescribe medication for other purposes. Also Zepbound and Mounjaro are exactly the same.

It's unethical when the run on semaglutides by fatties causes a shortage for diabetics. The reason your insurance covers Mounjaro is it is intended to treat diabetes. It doesn't want to cover Zepbound because it thinks you should eat less and move more -- it's not going to cover an expensive medication for you to take a shortcut. Trying to do an end-run around this division would be unethical by a practitioner.

People with diabetes mellitus / type II diabetes ARE fatties. That's how they got that way, with very very very few exceptions.

Are all morbidly obese? No. But you don't get type 2 without being overweight except in the rarest of cases. (like you were on steroids too long at too high a dose and you tanked your pancreas in the process).

How is it fraud on her part if an MD prescribes it?

Compounded tirzepatide is a good option for people who don’t have insurance coverage or who have high copays. It’s not fraud; who hurt you?

Your reading comprehension is embarrassingly poor.

The OP is all about how OP doesn’t want to pay for compound tirzepatide anymore and wants to trick the insurance company into paying for the brand diabetes version because their insurance doesn’t cover weight loss meds.

You do not need diabetes to be on these drugs. What would be fraud is saying someone has diabetes when they do not to get it covered by insurance. That's not happening here.

Not as poor as yours! Clearly didn’t read to the end of the OP’s post

People with diabetes actually need this drug. My sister has diabetes and needs it but has to ration it thanks to people like OP.

DP and bullcrap.
