How many refills can I get from this online prescription refill visit?
It depends! Providers on Sesame can typically assist with refilling 1-2 existing prescriptions during a prescription refill appointment. If you require additional medication, your provider may require a longer or additional visit so that there is time to adequately review and assess your medication needs.
If you’re a new patient, most providers will write a prescription for 30 days and may want to schedule a follow-up appointment to ensure that the medication is effective. If you’re a returning patient, your provider may prescribe for a longer period of time.
Can I use my health insurance for online prescriptions and refills?
Online prescription visits through Sesame are cash-pay only; we do not accept insurance in order to keep prices low and transparent.
However, if you do have health insurance and are prescribed medication during your appointment, your prescription may be covered depending on your plan. When you pick up your medication at your pharmacy, the pharmacist can check your coverage using the insurance they have on file or the information you provide.
To see if your medication is covered and what your copay will be, you can also check your insurance plan’s drug formulary or contact your insurance provider directly.
If you are prescribed medication through Sesame’s online weight loss program, your provider can assist with prior authorization requests for GLP-1s and other weight loss medications. Visit our program page for details.
Do I need proof of a prior prescription?
It is helpful to have proof of a prior prescription before your refill visit. Depending on the medication, some Sesame providers may require proof of a prior prescription before refilling it. Your provider may ask to see a picture of an old pill bottle or check for previous prescriptions from another Sesame provider. In some instances, your Sesame provider may also be able to access a national pharmacy system to see prescriptions from non-Sesame providers.
