Frequently asked
questions

What insurance does Miga accept?

We’re covered by Medicare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Humana, Anthem, Aetna, and Sana in certain states, and we’ll be adding more insurers in 2024. You can also use your insurance for lab tests and medications that might be part of your heart health plan.
You’re responsible for any copay or coinsurance, just as you would be for an in-person doctor visit. You can find a list of insurance plans we accept here.

How much does Miga cost?

You use your health insurance to pay for Miga, and cost-sharing works the same as when you see a doctor in person. There are no annual fees or monthly subscriptions. You can also cancel the program at any time.

For most people, the Miga program costs $0 to $50 a month, including our app and devices (blood pressure monitor, scale). For many people, the cost is $0 per month. You may use your insurance to cover any medications or labs, and there are no additional fees beyond your normal cost-sharing.

How is Miga different from seeing a doctor in person?

Built by physicians and backed by the latest research, Miga delivers best-in-class heart health care that we wish everyone had access to in more traditional clinics. We combine unique expertise and personalization with both convenience and ongoing support, making it simple to improve your heart health without unnecessary frustration or stress.

With Miga, you can book virtual visits easily, automatically share your blood pressure and weight data, and message with your dedicated care team right in the app. Your personalized plan may include effective medications, expert diet and lifestyle advice, and simple daily actions to keep you moving forward. And, because your Miga care team will be paying close attention to your progress, you’ll never have to navigate your care alone.

This is heart health the way it should be.

Where is Miga located?

Miga is a virtual clinic serving patients across the US. You see your providers over video visits from wherever you are. With Miga, you can book virtual visits easily, automatically share your weight and blood pressure data, and message with your care team right in the app.

What do the conditions you treat have to do with my heart?

The conditions we treat — obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol — are closely tied to heart health. We take a proactive approach to managing and preventing these conditions, because a healthy heart is the key to living longer.

Do you replace my primary care provider?

No. We provide best-in-class care for obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol, but we don’t provide the full spectrum of services of a primary care provider. We’re here to complement your current doctor, not to replace them. When you enroll with Miga, we’ll communicate with your primary care provider to coordinate your overall care. Many primary care providers and OB-GYNs refer their patients to Miga.

What types of medication do you offer?

Depending on your specific needs, we may prescribe medication in combination with lifestyle support. Some of the medications we prescribe include antihypertensives, GLP-1 agonists, metformin, and statins. Most of the medications available through our program are generic, but we provide insurance navigation for medications that require prior authorization.

We cannot guarantee insurance coverage of medications, but we will work with you to understand your options.

For the best results, our plans also include ongoing data monitoring, health coaching, and nutrition support. It is not a requirement to take medication in order to work with Miga.

Do you prescribe GLP-1s?

Depending on your personalized plan, we may prescribe medications for obesity. We cannot guarantee insurance coverage of medications, but we will work with you to understand your options.

When appropriate, we prescribe GLP-1 medications including semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic, Rybelsus) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro) that are important for the effective management of obesity and diabetes. We prescribe them in combination with diet and lifestyle support.


Are the blood pressure monitor and scale included?

Yes. If you enroll in our health coaching program, a blood pressure monitor and scale are included. These devices automatically sync with the Miga app, so they don’t need to be paired via Bluetooth. The data is automatically shared with your Miga care team, who check your readings to help you make progress.

Do I need to get lab work done?

Yes. In order to determine which medications are best for you and create your care plan, we require that you complete lab work or share recent results with your Miga care team. You can submit recent results through the intake process or get your lab work done at any lab in the US.
