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.

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.
