Workshop — Care Cost Strategy
The brain fog, the disrupted sleep, the days your edge goes quiet — these are not lifestyle inconveniences. They are financial events. And they keep costing you whether you have a diagnosis or not.
The Problem
You are not imagining it. The brain fog, the sleep that doesn't restore you, the days when your usual sharpness isn't there. The lab results that come back "normal." You leave without answers — and with a bill.
Even after someone names what's happening, the costs don't stop. They shift. Specialist visits. Prescription navigation. Insurance claims you don't know to file. FSA dollars you leave on the table. Benefits you qualify for but never ask about. The financial cascade keeps running — named or unnamed, diagnosed or not.
This workshop is for the woman who is done absorbing costs she hasn't calculated — and is ready to start.
Co-pays, specialist visits, labs ordered and reordered, supplements that promised something. The direct, quantifiable spend that grows every quarter you go undiagnosed.
The days you underperformed. The contract you passed on. The promotion cycle you sat out because you didn't trust yourself. Cognitive symptoms don't stay in the clinic. They follow you to the office.
Every year of reduced earning, higher healthcare spending, and delayed diagnosis compounds. These are the costs she rarely calculates — and they are the largest ones on the ledger.
Menopause care is consistently undercovered, miscoded, and denied. Most women don't know what they're entitled to — or how to ask for it in writing.
What You Walk Away With
A scored diagnostic tool — not a symptom diary — structured to surface perimenopause indicators in clinical language. This is the document your doctor needs to see, in the format they are trained to read. It closes the translation gap between what you're experiencing and what gets documented in your chart.
The exact questions to ask. What to say if you get dismissed. How to request specific labs, referrals, and documentation that protect you for future insurance claims. This is not a general list of talking points. It is a conversation framework designed to move an appointment from "everything looks normal" to a documented clinical pathway.
Not general financial wellness advice. Five specific, actionable steps tied directly to menopause-related healthcare spending: insurance coding, FSA/HSA strategy, prescription navigation, specialist billing, and benefit claims most women never submit because they don't know they qualify. Each one has a dollar range attached. You will know what it can save you.
Who This Is For
Who Is Teaching This
Dr. Derezil is the only clinician practicing at the intersection of perimenopause medicine and financial strategy. She holds dual board certifications in medicine and credentials in wealth management — a combination that does not exist anywhere else in this space.
The women who come to Dr. Derezil are often two to three years into symptoms that have never been named. They are high-performing. Career-active. They have seen multiple providers and are absorbing costs they've stopped counting. They leave with a framework, a number, and a next step. Most say the same thing: they wish they had done this sooner.
The Menopause Tax™ is not a metaphor. It is a measurable event — and Meno & Money™ is the only platform that addresses it with both clinical precision and financial strategy.

Questions
Is this a medical appointment or diagnosis?
No. This workshop does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. It provides clinical literacy tools — documents designed to make your next provider appointment more productive and your out-of-pocket costs more manageable. Dr. Derezil is a physician; this session functions as financial and health literacy education, not clinical care.
What if I'm not sure I'm in perimenopause?
That uncertainty is exactly why this workshop exists. One of the tools you receive — the validated provider questionnaire — is designed to help your physician assess that. You do not need a diagnosis to benefit from this session.
Why only 10 people?
Because every participant gets to ask questions. A room of 200 is a lecture. A room of 10 is a working session. The format is intentional.
I can't make the live date. Can I still get the materials?
All registered participants receive the recording and all three documents after the session. You benefit from the live Q&A even if you watch it later.
What's the difference between this and the Meno & Money™ Audit?
The workshop gives you tools and a framework. The Meno & Money™ Audit is a 60-minute, one-on-one session with Dr. Derezil — invitation only. The workshop comes first. The audit is what follows for women who need a personalized strategy.
Is there a refund policy?
Due to the limited enrollment, spots are non-refundable. If you register and cannot attend, you will receive the recording and all materials.
