So which medications are actually covered under the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge?
There are three, and the specific formulation matters, so write these down.
Wegovy, both the injectable and the oral tablet form.
Zepbound, but only the KwikPen formulation. The single-dose vial and single-dose pen are not included.
Foundayo, all formulations.
All three are FDA-approved weight management medications.
All three are available at the $50 copay for eligible beneficiaries starting July 1.
One thing that surprises a lot of people: this program runs completely separate from your regular Part D coverage. That means the $50 does not count toward your deductible or your out-of-pocket maximum for the year. It’s its own thing entirely.
The list of covered medications could also be updated as the program runs. CMS already added Foundayo after the original announcement, so it’s worth staying tuned.
More details coming on exactly who qualifies and how it works at the pharmacy.
