Which program applies to you
| How you pay | What applies |
|---|---|
| Insurance through work or the Marketplace | When you have coverage, the program to use is the Mounjaro Savings Card, and a fill may cost as little as $25. Commercially insured with Mounjaro coverage; government plans excluded. Maximum savings $150 per 1-month fill. If your plan does not cover Mounjaro, the program costs $499 a month. |
| Medicare | When you have Medicare, you cannot use Savings cards, so the Mounjaro Part D copay applies. Card terms exclude government plans. |
| Medicaid | With Medicaid, Savings cards cannot be used; Mounjaro coverage depends on the Medicaid drug list in your state. States differ in their coverage of weight loss; type 2 diabetes is the usual covered use. |
