At Vitality Medical Group located in Eldon, Missouri, we want to share with you a startling truth that many popular weight loss options conceal behind their glitz and glamour. These programs can come with outrageous costs that most consumers are not even aware of until after they have signed up and committed. Nutrisystem, Jenny Craig, Medifast, and others do not disclose the true costs upfront, which can have a significant impact on your household budget.

What’s even more shocking is that most insurance companies do not cover the cost of weight loss programs. They consider weight loss efforts to be elective procedures, and as such, the costs are typically not covered under most plans. This means that you are likely to have to pay out of pocket for any program you choose.

Therefore, it’s crucial to find the most cost-effective weight loss program available. Fortunately, the recent FDA approval of a new class of weight loss medication has made it easier and less expensive than many traditional options. At Vitality Medical Group, we can provide you with the most effective and affordable weight loss solutions that will help you achieve your goals without breaking the bank.
