Unfortunately, most medical insurance plans do not cover Upneeq, as it’s primarily considered a cosmetic treatment. Here’s why:
-
Cosmetic vs. Medical: Insurers generally cover treatments that address medically necessary conditions. Droopy eyelids due to aging are usually classified as cosmetic.
-
Possible Exceptions: In rare cases where eyelid drooping severely obstructs vision and there’s clear medical necessity, some insurance plans may provide partial coverage after prior authorization.
Even though coverage is uncommon, it’s always a good idea to check with your insurance provider and discuss your situation with one of our medical experts to see if you might qualify for an exception.
