What is Corewell Health Weight Control?
Corewell Health Weight Control is the weight management program of Corewell Health, a health system with several offices. Its team includes physicians, dietitians, mental health providers and exercise specialists, along with doctors who specialize in obesity medicine. It offers non-surgical weight loss, surgical weight loss, medication-based weight loss and pediatric weight management for children. The medications it names are GLP-1 agonists, including semaglutide (Wegovy). The surgical options it lists are gastric bypass, gastric sleeve and revisional bariatric surgery, which is for patients who had an earlier bariatric procedure that did not work.
It does not name an individual prescriber. In its own words: "The type of surgery will depend on your situation and will be discussed and determined with your doctor." Virtual visits are also part of the program: "Virtual appointments are often available as you pursue your weight reduction goals."
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices for any program, and it does not state a consultation fee. It does not say whether medication is included in a plan's cost, or whether it accepts insurance. Its weight management material tells patients to check with their insurance provider for coverage. It says its financial counselors can help determine eligibility for interest-free payment plans. The surgical material asks patients to contact their insurer to confirm coverage, and pediatric care may require a referral from a child's doctor.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask which office you would be booked into, and whether that office runs both the medication program and any surgical option you are considering. Ask who writes the prescription, and whether a doctor who specializes in obesity medicine will see you. Ask whether any plan fee includes the medication, and whether the medicine is brand-name Wegovy or a compounded product. Ask whether it bills your insurance, and whether your plan covers weight-loss medication. Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, including the periodic blood testing its bypass material describes. For surgery, ask what the initial workup costs and whether a referral from your primary care doctor is needed first. Finally, ask how to cancel or stop a plan.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want a health system's weight program that covers medication, surgery and children's care, and you are willing to confirm prices, the prescriber and insurance with your office before you book. If you need posted prices before you call, it is not the right place to start, and that is worth knowing before you pick up the phone.
