Does Your Health Plan Cover Ozempic? 

I was just approved thru Aetna Part D for Wegovy for cardiology patients. It has just been approved by the fda & Medicare part d

I feel it should be covered. It would help me because I’m prediabetic due to my weight & I have to take cholesterol medicines. Weight loss would take care of problems like these. It would also help with other problems many seniors have like mobility & stresses in joints due to weight.

Wegovy and Zepbound should be covered. Could avoid weight related consequences like hypertension , adult onset diabetes, and cholesterol issues.

YES!!! It Should Be Covered For Weight Loss!!!!!! I'm Not Over Weight.... But, If I Was ..Finally Something For People To Lose Weight!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Yes, absolutely! Many co-morbidities can be resolved with weight loss. Less need for medication related to blood pressure as well as hyperlipidemia (just to name a couple). It could save insurance companies so much more in the long run.

What you said is right , Lady!!

I don’t take Ozempic but I do take Rybelsus for my Diabetes. With this craze of weight loss I have had to wait up to a month to get my meds. I have learned to put my script is as soon as insurance allows me to.

Thank You

Adding weight loss high dollar drugs such as Ozempic will also result in higher medicare premiummz across the board are you prepared to pay for it even if you dont use it or qualify ?

I think they should approve weight loss drugs. Extra weight causes so many avoidable illnesses by losing weight. And these illness are very expensive to treat.

I had a diabetic eye exam and the dr's office has billed me two times. I thought a diabetic eye exam was covered by Medicare?

Is Wegovy similar to Ozempic?

I’m looking for a plan that covers margaritas.

Ozempic is not indicated for weight loss, so No, it should not be covered. In the rare occasion that Ozempic is partially covered, the patient must be insulin dependent. So much for prevention.
