All three ship statewide to Vermont, telehealth removes the geographic barrier. The Top Pick is the program we feature to start with (an affiliate partner, disclosed); the two below own one angle each. Read the methodology.
People who want the oral tirzepatide gum, or who are comfortable selecting a 4-, 12-, 24- or 52-week plan for an advertised GLP-1 + GIP rate from $129
Included at from $69/mo
Best for Best Tracker
Compounded tirzepatide microdose from $149/mo on a yearly plan plus a first-party iOS + Android tracker app. Gala Health's merged Trustpilot profile is 4.6★ across 3,925 reviews; not all are GLP-1-treatment reviews.

Vermont has an adult obesity rate of 29.0%, below the national average. The state's small population and rural character mean limited in-person specialist options, UVM Medical Center in Burlington is the primary academic center. Vermont's progressive healthcare approach has made it an early adopter of telehealth, and GLP-1 programs delivered via telehealth are well-suited to the state's dispersed rural communities. The Northeast Kingdom region is especially dependent on remote care access.
33 of the 54 programs we track publish coverage that includes Vermont. The 8 below are the highest-scored of those, ranked by our editorial score, never by what they pay us.
A further 14 publish only a partial state list, or none at all, so we could not verify Vermont for them and have left them out rather than guess. Coverage is confirmed at intake, before payment, on every program.
Vermont Medicaid does not cover GLP-1 medications for weight loss. The state Preferred Drug List excludes drugs used for weight loss from the pharmacy program outright. GLP-1s are covered, all as non-preferred agents requiring prior authorization, for type 2 diabetes, for Wegovy in cardiovascular risk reduction where the member has a prior heart attack, stroke or symptomatic peripheral arterial disease, for Wegovy in MASH, and for Zepbound in obstructive sleep apnea confirmed by a sleep study. A state official confirmed in June 2026 that there is no Vermont Medicaid coverage for weight loss treatment.
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Vermont is the dominant carrier. Vermont's small population limits plan options, and weight-loss coverage is contracting. As of January 1, 2026, plans from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Vermont and MVP Health Care stopped covering GLP-1s for weight loss alone, as did the plans covering public school employees. BCBSVT said nearly 3,500 of its members were affected. Coverage for type 2 diabetes was not part of that change.
