WHAT'S INSIDE
Employer data around GLP-1 trends
GLP-1 medications are among the highest-cost pharmacy items in employer health plans.
Depending on the formulary and member usage, annual spend per covered employee can range from $12,000 to $20,000 — and with utilization rising steeply, total plan cost is a growing concern. But the financial question isn't just about what GLP-1s cost today. It's about what discontinuation — and subsequent regain — costs over a multi-year horizon.
