To add to my last post, why is she speaking like insurance won't cover it? She obviously has insurance, because she said she does and she would never lie to us. I work in healthcare, I don't work with those kinds of meds anymore, but I did for a short time when they got really popular, and I've found it's actually easier for insurance to approve them for weight loss than for diabetes. First off, all insurance is different and every plans are different, so it's not always the same case for everyone, but when you have diabetes there is a lot insurance want you to do/try before going automatically to the top shelf. They want you to try this med or that med, see a nutritionist, A1c has to be in a certain range, age, etc. you get the idea. Wherehas there isn't many things FDA approved for weight loss, so it's usually approved quickly. Hearing her say will definitely be paying a "second rent", which is probably correct, but probably not if she actually had health insurance like she claims.
