Does the Zepbound savings card work with telehealth prescriptions?

Yes, the Zepbound savings card (Eli Lilly's LillyLink program) can generally work with telehealth prescriptions, but with some important caveats:

What Typically Works

• Telehealth prescriptions sent to in-network retail pharmacies (like CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid, etc.) are usually eligible
• The savings card works based on where you fill the prescription, not where it was prescribed

Key Restrictions to Know

• The savings card cannot be used with insurance — it's for cash-pay or commercially insured patients (no Medicare/Medicaid)
• It does not work with mail-order or specialty pharmacies that some telehealth platforms use exclusively
• Some telehealth services (like Ro, Hims & Hers, or Noom) use their own compounding pharmacies, which would not be eligible

Best Approach

• Ask your telehealth provider to send the prescription to a local retail pharmacy
• Services like Teladoc, Sesame, or direct-prescribing telehealth doctors that use standard pharmacies tend to work smoothly

Recommendation

Call 1-800-545-5979 (LillyLink) directly to confirm eligibility for your specific situation before filling.
