IN PLAIN LANGUAGE
What We Do
Honest Care writes GLP-1 appeal letters and evidence reports to help patients fight insurance denials for Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, and Mounjaro.
We focus on building the strongest possible case using:
- Your BMI and weight history
- Documented comorbidities (diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, etc.)
- Past medication trials and outcomes
- Diet and exercise history
- Clinical research and FDA guidelines
Important to Know
We help you build the strongest case we can—but we cannot guarantee approval. The final decision always rests with your insurance company. What we can promise is a professional, evidence-backed appeal that speaks the insurer's language.
Every patient has the legal right to appeal a denied claim under the Affordable Care Act.[1] With Honest Care, exercising that right becomes easier—and your appeal becomes stronger.
STEP BY STEP
How Our GLP-1 Appeal Process Works
Here's exactly what happens when you work with Honest Care:
Take the Online Assessment
Answer questions about your insurance, denial reason, medical history, and weight management journey. This takes about 5-10 minutes and gives us everything we need to evaluate your case.
Case Evaluation & Appeal Strategy
Our specialists review your denial reason, insurance type, and supporting evidence to determine the strongest approach. We identify gaps in documentation and build a strategy tailored to your specific situation.
Appeal Letter & Supporting Documents
We write a professional, personalized appeal letter that directly addresses your denial reason. Premium users also receive a detailed evidence report citing clinical trials, FDA guidelines, and professional society recommendations.
Consultation & Support (If Purchased)
For Premium + Consultation users, you'll have a phone or video session to review your appeal, ask questions, and make any final refinements before submission. We want you to feel confident.
Submit Your Appeal
You (or your doctor) submit the appeal via mail, fax, or your insurer's portal. Premium users can use our built-in fax functionality to send directly. We provide clear instructions on where to send it, what to attach, and how to track it.

Tools That Make Submitting Your Appeal Easier
One of the most frustrating parts of appealing is figuring out where to send it and what to include. We've built tools to make this simple.
Direct Fax Submission
Premium users can fax their appeal directly to the insurer through our platform. No printer, no fax machine, no post office—just click and send.
Where to Send It
We show you exactly where on your denial letter to find your plan's appeal address or fax number. No guessing, no hunting through paperwork.
Submission Checklist
A clear list of what to attach: your appeal letter, denial letter, supporting evidence, and any medical records. Check each item off before you submit.
Follow-Up Guidance
We tell you when to follow up, what to ask when you call, and how to track your appeal's status. You'll never feel left in the dark.
Don't Miss Your Deadline
You have 180 days from your denial date to file an internal appeal. After that, your right to appeal may be forfeited. We help you stay on track.[2]

ABOUT HONEST CARE'S APPEAL SERVICES
Frequently Asked Questions
We write GLP-1 appeal letters and evidence reports to help patients fight insurance denials for Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, and Mounjaro. We focus on building a strong, medically-grounded case using your BMI, comorbidities, medication history, and clinical research. We also provide tools and guidance to help you submit your appeal.
Yes. After completing our online assessment, you receive a customized appeal letter at no cost. There are no hidden fees or obligations. Premium support and consultations are available if you want additional help, but the free letter is genuinely free.
For the free tier, you typically receive your appeal letter within minutes of completing the assessment. Premium letters with specialist review may take 1-2 business days. Consultations are scheduled based on availability.
No—and any service that promises guaranteed approval isn't being honest with you. The final decision always rests with your insurance company. What we can promise is a professional, evidence-backed appeal that addresses your specific denial reason and gives you the best possible chance.
Premium users can fax their appeal directly to their insurance company through our platform. Simply enter the fax number from your denial letter, attach your documents, and click send. You'll receive a confirmation when the fax is delivered—no printer, scanner, or fax machine required.
Our service covers the most common denial types: medical necessity, step therapy, prior authorization requirements, and plan exclusions. If your denial involves an unusual situation, our Premium + Consultation tier allows you to speak directly with a specialist who can provide personalized guidance.
Yes. If your internal appeal is denied, you have the right to an external review by an independent third party. We can help you prepare documentation for external review—the process is similar, and external reviews often have higher success rates because they're evaluated by reviewers outside your insurance company.
We currently support appeals for Wegovy (semaglutide), Zepbound (tirzepatide), Ozempic (semaglutide), and Mounjaro (tirzepatide). These are the most commonly denied GLP-1 medications for weight management and diabetes treatment.
