Best GLP-1 telehealth programs for Medicare patients with diabetes of 2026

Medicare Part D covers Ozempic and Mounjaro for type 2 diabetes at standard formulary copays. These four programs handle the diabetes-indicated prescription correctly for older patients on Medicare.

The short version

Unlike Wegovy for weight loss (which requires the cardiovascular indication under Medicare), Ozempic and Mounjaro for type 2 diabetes have been covered under Medicare Part D since their original FDA approvals. The Medicare copay for Tier 3 GLP-1s is typically $50-$100 monthly. Most general telehealth programs don't bill Medicare; the programs below do, and code the prescription for diabetes (E11.9) correctly so the Part D pharmacy fills it.

What we considered

  • Handles Medicare Part D billing for diabetes-indicated GLP-1
  • Codes the diagnosis correctly (E11.9 type 2 diabetes)
  • Coordinates with the patient's endocrinologist or primary care doctor
  • Manages A1C-driven dose adjustments

Top pick: 9amHealth

9amHealth specifically targets patients with type 2 diabetes, prediabetes and cardiovascular risk; handles Medicare Part D billing as standard practice.
