In four days
Take a lab test 

If you’re a good fit for the program, your provider will order a metabolic lab test. The test will help you understand how your body’s working right now. You can take your test at any Quest location or purchase an at-home collection kit through Ro for an additional fee. If you live in a state where Quest is not available, we’ll automatically send you an at-home blood collection kit for no charge. Here's what you'll test:

CHOL, HDL, LDL, TRIG: A traditional Lipid Panel that will help us understand your metabolic health.

BUN and CREAT: Kidney function measures to help inform what medication is right for you (if appropriate).

TSH: Thyroid function testing to see if there is a thyroid related issue that could be causing weight challenges.

HbA1c: Used to screen for diabetes and prediabetes, another measure of metabolic health.

If this seems like science jargon, don't worry! We’ll help you make sense of it.

Typically within one week
Provider writes an Rx (if appropriate)

After reviewing your results, your provider will determine if you’re eligible for medication. If you are, they’ll tailor a program with prescription treatment best suited to your unique biology.

Can take several weeks
Try to get insurance coverage

If you'd like to try to use insurance, our concierge partner connects with your insurance company to help get the cost of medication covered. Here’s how they’ll do it:

Liaise with your insurance: We know this can be a headache, so the team will take care of communicating with your insurance company. They’ll even handle the paperwork. 

Explore every option: The team will look into the medication options that are right for you. If you get denied for one medication, they’ll look for other options that are clinically appropriate for you.

Find solutions to get you started: If your insurance doesn’t cover the cost of your medication, the team will see if there are patient access programs that would help reduce your out-of-pocket cost.

If you want to explore cash pay options, they’ll help you figure out the available options in your area.
