Which program applies to you?
| How you pay | What applies |
|---|---|
| Insurance through work or the Marketplace | A fill through the Foundayo Savings Card can cost as little as $25 when you have coverage. Commercially insured with Foundayo coverage; government plans excluded. Maximum savings $100 per 1-month fill. |
| Medicare | Savings cards cannot be used with Medicare, so your Foundayo Part D copay applies. Card terms exclude government plans. |
| Medicare, for weight loss | Under Medicare Part D, weight loss use of Foundayo is priced at $50 a month through the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge. |
| Medicaid | Savings cards do not work with Medicaid. Whether Foundayo is covered depends on your state's Medicaid drug list. States differ on weight-loss coverage; the use usually covered is type 2 diabetes. |
| No insurance, paying myself | Without insurance coverage, you can pay Foundayo's lowest self-pay rate of $149 a month. At the manufacturer's pharmacy, you pay this amount yourself for LillyDirect 0.8 mg or 2.5 mg. |

Savings card copay
With the Foundayo card, your copay drops to $25, and the card pays at most $100 each month. To pay only $25, your plan's copay has to be $125 or less. Your copay minus $100 is what you pay above that.
