Am I a candidate for a GLP-1?
Walks through the BMI + comorbidity criteria that most insurance plans and prescribers use when they evaluate GLP-1 candidacy.
What the result means
The result tells you where you fall against those criteria. It is a preparation aid for the conversation with your prescriber — the actual decision belongs to the clinician who examines you.
Limitations
This checker does not review your medical history, your labs, or drug interactions. It cannot diagnose obesity, type 2 diabetes, or any other condition, and it does not authorize a prescription.
