Quick Answer

A medical weight loss program is provider-supervised weight management combining a metabolic workup, prescription medication when appropriate (typically GLP-1 medications like semaglutide or tirzepatide), lifestyle coaching, and ongoing follow-up. At Good Health NC, medical weight loss is part of primary care, not a separate cash-pay program. Visits use your standard primary care insurance benefits, and we handle prior authorizations for medications.
