About For Women, PA

What is For Women, PA?

For Women, PA is a gynecology practice at 727 Eastowne Drive, Suite 200A, in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Dr. Elizabeth G. Motyka, MD FACOG is the physician who prescribes. Google lists the practice as a gynecologist with a 4.9 rating from 72 reviews.

Gynecology is the main work here. Hormone therapy is one of its listed services, under perimenopause and menopause care, which includes hormone testing and "compounded bio-identical hormones or natural alternatives." The practice does not name its hormone medications, and it lists no weight loss, peptide or longevity service. Telehealth visits are offered.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices for hormone therapy or for visits, and it does not say whether medication is included in any price. Lab draws carry a separate charge of $22 for venipuncture, specimen handling and processing, apart from the tests themselves.

The practice participates with most major health plans in the region, including BCBS, United, Aetna, Cigna, Wellpath, Medcost and Bright Health. It warns that some plans from those insurers are excluded, so check your own plan. The office also says many hormone and thyroid tests are no longer covered by insurance when they are done as part of an annual visit. Medicare and Medicaid are not accepted, but patients on those plans can be seen as cash pay with a discount. Cash or check payers get a $5 discount.

What should you ask before you book?

Start with whether you can become a patient at all. Dr. Motyka takes new patients only by referral, and only for surgical and problem gyn issues. The office is not accepting patients for ongoing care right now. Ask whether that has changed.

Ask who manages your hormone prescriptions and follow-up, and whether telehealth covers those visits.

Ask whether the price includes medication, and whether the hormones are brand-name or compounded. Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, and which tests your plan will pay for. Refills need three business days and are not handled after hours.

Ask how cancellation works. No membership or cancellation terms are published.

Office hours are listed two different ways, so call 919.401.4515 to confirm when someone is available. The office is closed on weekends.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if a referring provider sends you in for a surgical or problem gyn issue. If you want hormone therapy as an ongoing patient, the office says it is not accepting patients for ongoing care right now, so call before you commit money to anything.
