Insurance & Payment
Concierge Health Rx combines personalized nutrition care, group support, and medical evaluation to support your metabolic health.
Insurance coverage is reviewed separately for registered dietitian visits, group nutrition sessions, nurse practitioner visits, laboratory testing, and medications. Coverage depends on your specific plan, benefits, the provider delivering your care, and applicable coverage requirements.
Before enrollment, our team will review your insurance information and explain your care options and any expected out-of-pocket costs.
Have a plan other than BCBS RI or UnitedHealthcare? Please contact us for an individual coverage review. Your plan may cover nutrition services through Rhode Island Nutrition Therapy even if it does not cover visits with the program’s nurse practitioner.
Private-pay options may be available for patients without insurance and in other circumstances permitted by applicable insurance agreements and program rules. Please contact us for eligibility and pricing.
Concierge Health Rx FAQ
Can I participate if I have insurance other than BCBS RI or UnitedHealthcare?
Please contact us for an individual coverage review. Your plan may cover nutrition services through Rhode Island Nutrition Therapy even if it does not cover visits with the program’s nurse practitioner. We will explain which services may be covered and what options are available for your care.
Are nutrition visits and group sessions covered?
Individual medical nutrition therapy and group nutrition sessions may be covered when your plan’s requirements are met. Covered services provided through our participating providers are billed according to your benefits and our insurance agreements. Applicable copayments, deductibles, or coinsurance may apply.
What if some services are not covered?
We will explain any services that are not covered and any permitted private-pay options before you receive them. Any required financial consent will be completed in advance.
Are medications and laboratory tests included?
Medications and laboratory testing are separate from program service fees. Our team will explain available options and expected costs before you proceed.
Will my health insurance cover my GLP-1, HRT or peptides?
All medications in this program are self-pay and are not billed through insurance, including GLP-1 medications, hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and peptide treatments. Medication costs are separate from appointment and lab charges.
How much should I expect to pay for my GLP-1, HRT or peptides?
Preliminary monthly estimates are $140–$200 for compounded semaglutide and $170–$280 for compounded tirzepatide. These are not prescription quotes. Actual costs depend on the medication, dose, formulation, pharmacy, quantity, and possible shipping or other fees. Your personalized quote takes priority over website estimates.
Hormone therapy and peptides are individually priced. Request a personalized quote before starting and when prescriptions change.
Compounded medications are not FDA-approved and are not Ozempic or Zepbound. Ask your medical provider why a compounded prescription is being considered and what this means for your care.
Will my labs be submitted to insurance?
Yes. Labs will be submitted to your insurance. Submission does not guarantee coverage: your plan determines which tests are covered and whether a deductible, copay, or coinsurance applies. Please confirm your lab benefits and any out-of-pocket costs with your insurer.
When should I have my labs drawn?
Have labs drawn within 2–3 days of the order. Follow your specific lab orders and preparation instructions. Some supplement holds last up to 7 days; complete required holds before testing and coordinate timing with your care team. Ask when your results will be reviewed.
Am I expected to attend every appointment?
All medical-provider appointments, Registered Dietitian appointments, and weekly group sessions are expected. The general discharge policy applies. Insurance-billed participants are removed from the program after a second missed class. If you cannot attend, contact your team promptly.
What do I need to complete each week?
Complete your weekly progress form, including your weight, symptoms, and any other updates requested by your care team. These check-ins help your team understand your progress and identify concerns to discuss. Contact your care team directly about new or worsening symptoms rather than waiting for the next weekly form.
How should I prepare for my first visit?
Activate your Healthie account and complete your intake forms. Have your medication and supplement list, allergies, health history, recent labs, and insurance information ready. Bring your questions and one or two goals you would like help with.
When are the weekly classes, and are recordings available?
Classes meet live on Zoom on Mondays at 7 p.m. for 75 minutes over 12 weeks. Register for your Zoom links and check the time zone in your confirmation. Sessions are not recorded. Contact the team as soon as possible if you cannot attend.
How do I contact my care team between visits?
Use your team’s approved communication channel, including Healthie as directed. Replies are within 2 business days. Messages sent on weekends or holidays receive a reply the next business day.
Contact your team directly about new or worsening symptoms rather than waiting for the weekly progress form. Messaging is not an emergency service. Seek immediate care for urgent symptoms; call 911 for a medical emergency.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule?
Give at least 48 hours’ notice. Open Sessions in your Healthie portal or mobile app and select the appointment to cancel or reschedule. Call (401) 398-2454 if you need help.
A late cancellation, late reschedule, or no-show may incur a $100 fee charged to your card on file. Under the general discharge policy, a no-show or more than one late cancellation or reschedule results in discharge from care; emergency exceptions are at the provider’s discretion. Insurance-billed participants are also removed from the program after a second missed class.
How far ahead should I request a refill?
Request refills at least 48 business hours before you need them, using the method your team provides. A visit or lab review may be required first. Pharmacy processing and shipping can take additional time. Contact your prescriber or dispensing pharmacy with medication-specific questions.
Will I need a scale or other monitoring devices?
Your team will explain which measurements or devices are useful for your care, how often to use them, and how to report results. Not every patient needs every device. If you use a RENPHO scale, it syncs with the RENPHO Health app; do not assume readings automatically transfer to Healthie. Follow your team’s reporting instructions.
How will we measure progress beyond weight?
Your goals may include energy, sleep, daily activity, confidence, and sustainable routines. Your provider may also review selected labs or measurements when appropriate. Together, you will decide which changes are meaningful to you. Results vary by individual.
Is there a private-pay option?
Private-pay options may be available for patients without insurance and in other circumstances permitted by applicable insurance agreements and program rules. Please contact us for eligibility and pricing.
What is the appointment schedule during the 12 weeks?
Begin with your Registered Dietitian nutrition intake on Day 1, followed by your medical evaluation within 72 hours. At 2 weeks, your provider reviews your results and assessment to personalize your treatment plan. Medical-provider check-ins take place every 4 weeks, with 3–4 visits during the program. Attend scheduled nutrition visits and weekly groups, and complete your weekly progress form. At Week 12, review your progress and next steps. Your team confirms your appointment and lab dates.
What happens after the 12 weeks?
At Week 12, you and your care team review your progress and plan your next steps. Your team will review coverage for ongoing RD and NP services separately and explain any permitted private-pay options and expected costs before you continue.
If you continue GLP-1 medication and/or HRT, ongoing maintenance with both the NP and RD is required for treatment monitoring, medication management, nutrition support, and care coordination. Your team confirms your maintenance appointment schedule and refill arrangements before the initial program ends.
Medications, supplements, labs/testing, and optional CGM costs remain separate. The initial weekly class series ends after 12 weeks; confirm any ongoing group options with your team.
