As a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, it helps people manage their blood sugar levels. Because of its appetite-suppressing effects, it\u2019s sometimes used for its weight-loss benefits. While it\u2019s an effective drug, Mounjaro may be expensive, even with insurance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"does-kaiser-cover-mounjaro\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Does Kaiser cover Mounjaro?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether Kaiser Permanente covers Mounjaro depends on the specific plan and region, as well as the medical condition it\u2019s being prescribed for. Kaiser may cover Mounjaro when it\u2019s prescribed to treat Type 2 diabetes, but how it&#8217;s covered can differ based on your plan. In many cases, coverage for Mounjaro comes with various restrictions, depending on the plan:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/prior-authorization\/\"><b>Prior authorization<\/b><\/a><b>:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Before getting coverage for Mounjaro, you need approval based on specific medical guidelines.

Like other similar GLP-1 agonists, Mounjaro is approved to treat diabetes and is typically covered by most Medicaid plans for this purpose. However, Mounjaro isn\u2019t listed on the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/healthy.kaiserpermanente.org\/content\/dam\/kporg\/final\/documents\/formularies\/medicare\/2025\/comprehensive-formulary.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2025 Medicare Part D Formulary for Kaiser<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, so you may have to call your plan administrator for verification.

However, it might be covered by some plans and with prior authorization. For example, Mounjaro may be available under <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/healthy.kaiserpermanente.org\/content\/dam\/kporg\/final\/documents\/formularies\/nw\/kp-mounjaro-nw-en.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kaiser Northwest&#8217;s prescription drug plan<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for weight loss, but only if you have coverage for weight loss drugs.

Unlike Mounjaro, Zepbound is approved for weight loss and may be covered by some Kaiser plans. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/zepbound-vs-mounjaro\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zepbound and Mounjaro<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are virtually the same drug with similar dosages but different FDA-approved uses.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-much-does-mounjaro-cost-without-insurance\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How much does Mounjaro cost without insurance?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without insurance, the cost of Mounjaro can vary depending on different factors, such as the pharmacy and location. The average retail price for a box of four 5 mg\/0.5 mL prefilled pens is around $1,470. If you\u2019re taking a higher dosage of Mounjaro, you might have higher overall costs than someone who takes a lower dose, since you\u2019ll use pens more quickly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The cost of Mounjaro can also be affected by supply and demand, leading to periodic fluctuations in pricing. In addition, the price might vary based on whether the pharmacy is an independent local store or part of a larger chain.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-much-does-mounjaro-cost-with-kaiser\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How much does Mounjaro cost with Kaiser?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The exact cost of Mounjaro with Kaiser will depend on the specific plan. For example, some plans might list it as a Tier 2 drug, which means it&#8217;s a preferred brand-name medication. The California Grandfathered Point of Service (POS) for Large Groups Health Insurance Plans issued by Kaiser describes Mounjaro as a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/healthy.kaiserpermanente.org\/content\/dam\/kporg\/final\/documents\/formularies\/ca\/kaiser-permanente-insurance-company-pos-formulary-ca-en.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tier 2 drug<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some plans might categorize it as a higher-tier or specialty medication, resulting in higher copayment or coinsurance amounts.

You can access your card via the SingleCare app for convenience as well. The process is straightforward and could save you up to 80% on brand-name and generic medications at more than 35,000 pharmacies across the country. For Mounjaro, you could pay as low as $872 instead of $1,470 for four 5 mg\/0.5 mL prefilled pens. That\u2019s a savings of close to $600.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the cost of Mounjaro remains a limiting factor, you can consult a healthcare provider for potential <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/mounjaro-alternatives\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mounjaro alternatives<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that may be more affordable or covered by your plan.
