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.

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.
