What does it cost?

It does not publish prices for medical weight loss, and it does not say whether GLP-1 medication is included in any price. No consultation fee is listed. The clinic accepts self-payment, private insurance, Medicaid, and Medicare. Many insurers cover bariatric procedures, so check your own benefits before booking surgery. Cost estimates for procedures can be requested online, with or without a MyChart account, and the team will review coverage and financing options. Whether insurance covers GLP-1 medications is not stated. No membership terms or cancellation policy appear.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who writes the GLP-1 prescription, and whether it will be one of the prescribers named above. Ask whether the program price includes the medication, and whether any medication offered is compounded or brand-name. Ask what the consultation, follow-up visits, and lab work cost, and whether the weekly check-ins, telehealth, and peer groups are included. Confirm with your own insurer whether it covers GLP-1 medications, because the clinic does not say.

Intermountain also runs an on-demand route for injectable GLP-1 medications. Eligible patients complete a health assessment, speak with a pharmacist by phone, and have the medication shipped to them. Ask whether this location uses that route and who prescribes through it. Finally, ask how you cancel, whether any contract term applies, and what hours the clinic keeps.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want surgical and medication-based weight loss options from one clinic with a named prescriber team, and you are willing to get the medication, price, and insurance answers in writing before you commit. If you need a published monthly price before you call, this clinic does not give one, so plan to ask for it directly.
