Eligibility Requirements

Income Limit
Income limit: Novo Nordisk does not state one. Its program page, read 29 October 2026, says only that you need "a total household income that qualifies", and no percentage or dollar figure appears on its product list or application. Our 23 August check recorded 400% of the federal poverty level for most products and 200% for Ozempic; we cannot confirm either on Novo Nordisk's own pages today and have withdrawn both. Call 1-866-310-7549 and ask for the limit in dollars for your household size. ⚠️ Ozempic is available to uninsured patients only, and Medicare beneficiaries with prescription drug coverage are not eligible for Ozempic through the programme. You must have Medicare or no insurance, private or commercial insurance makes you ineligible for the PAP, and you must not be enrolled in or qualify for Medicaid, Extra Help / LIS, or VA benefits. Uninsured enrolment runs 12 months; Medicare enrolment runs to the end of the calendar year. Verified 29 October 2026. To see what every drugmaker publishes, read our 2026 income limits comparison and the drugmaker rules dataset.
Insurance Requirements
Uninsured, or on Medicare (Medicare patients qualify for the insulins, not Ozempic). Private or commercial insurance is not eligible, nor is anyone enrolled in or eligible for Medicaid, Extra Help (LIS) or VA benefits. U.S. citizens or legal residents only.

Sources and standards behind this page

Drug coverage in the United States is governed by published rules rather than by any one insurer's summary, and the sources below are the primary ones. They are linked so a reader can check a claim without taking this page's word for it.

This page describes how coverage and formularies work. It is not medical advice, and a reader's own plan documents and prescriber decide what applies to them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get free Ozempic through Novo Nordisk PAP?

Yes, for uninsured patients: Novo Nordisk marks Ozempic as available to uninsured patients only.

Medicare patients are not eligible for Ozempic through the programme. You will need a valid prescription and income documentation to apply.

Does Novo Nordisk PAP cover Wegovy for weight loss?

No. Wegovy is not on the Novo Nordisk PAP product list, which covers Ozempic and Novo Nordisk insulins. Check NovoCare for Wegovy savings options outside the PAP.
