Already taking Wegovy, Zepbound, or Foundayo? This one is specifically for you.

One of the most common questions I’m getting is: I’m already on one of these medications. Can I still use the GLP-1 Bridge?

The answer is yes, as long as you’re a Medicare Part D beneficiary and you meet the eligibility criteria.

Here’s the part that matters most.

The clinical criteria are based on where you were when you started the medication, not where you are today. So if you started Wegovy in 2023 with a BMI of 38 and your BMI is now 31, your doctor would confirm that you met the criteria when you started therapy. You would still qualify.

This is genuinely good news for people who have been paying full price for these medications for a long time.

What you need to do right now is talk to your prescribing doctor and give them a heads up that this program is coming. They’ll need to submit a prior authorization request once the program opens July 1. CMS releases the full process in June, so nothing to do on their end just yet.

But the earlier you have that conversation, the smoother July 1 is going to go.

When it comes to dental insurance, assumptions about how plans work can sometimes lead to confusion. Knowing the facts can help you make smarter decisions about your care and your coverage.

Here are a few more common dental insurance myths to be aware of:

✅ “Dental insurance works just like medical insurance.” Dental plans are generally structured around preventive maintenance and predictable cost-sharing. Many include annual maximums and tiered coverage levels for preventive, basic, and major services.

✅ “If nothing hurts, there’s no need to go for a visit.” Some dental conditions can develop without pain at first. Regular preventive visits enable early detection, helping to reduce the likelihood of urgent or more costly treatment later.

✅ “Indemnity plans pay whatever the dentist charges.” Indemnity plans typically reimburse based on standard fee benchmarks, not necessarily the full billed amount. If provider fees exceed those benchmarks, the remaining balance may become the patient’s responsibility.

Preventive visits and a clear understanding of your plan can go a long way in protecting both your oral health and your wallet. If you would like help reviewing your dental coverage, I would be glad to assist.

Here’s what actually happens when you go to pick up your medication through the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge.

Your doctor submits a prior authorization request through the GLP-1 Bridge system. This goes to a central processor, not your regular Part D plan. It’s a completely separate process.

Once that’s approved, you take your prescription to the pharmacy like normal.

At the counter, you pay $50. The pharmacy processes the claim through the GLP-1 Bridge system, not through your regular drug plan.

A couple of things to have ready when you go:

Your Medicare card. The pharmacy needs your Medicare Number to process the claim. If you don’t have your card handy, they can look it up with the last four digits of your Social Security number.

Your prescription, along with confirmation that your prior authorization has been submitted and approved.

And here’s the part worth repeating. Because this runs outside of your regular Part D coverage, your deductible does not apply. The $50 is the $50 no matter where you are in your plan year. No surprises at the counter.

CMS is releasing the full prior authorization process in June. I’ll have everything you need before July 1.

Ok, let’s talk about who actually qualifies for the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge. Because this is where it gets specific.

First, you have to be enrolled in a Medicare Part D plan. Most standard plans qualify, including standalone drug plans and Medicare Advantage plans with drug coverage.

Then your doctor has to confirm you meet one of these criteria:

BMI of 35 or higher, OR

BMI of 30 or higher AND you have heart failure, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or chronic kidney disease, OR

BMI of 27 or higher AND you have pre-diabetes, a previous heart attack, a previous stroke, or peripheral artery disease.

Here’s something important that a lot of people are going to miss.

The BMI requirement is based on where you were when you started your GLP-1 medication, not where you are today. So if you started Wegovy two years ago when your BMI was 36 and it’s now 31, you can still qualify based on where you started.

Your doctor will need to confirm this when they submit your prior authorization request. More on that process coming soon.

Questions about whether you specifically qualify? That’s exactly what I’m here for!

DM me and let’s figure it out together. 👇

Did any of those criteria surprise you?

A homeowners policy should not be something you buy once and forget. Rebuilding costs, liability exposure, and property risks can all change over time, and if your policy has not kept up, a loss can reveal coverage gaps at the worst possible moment.

Since June is National Homeownership Month, our team wanted to share a few homeowners insurance mistakes that can cause problems later down the line:

🏠 Outdated dwelling coverage - Rebuilding costs have increased significantly over the years. A home insured for $300,000 a few years ago may cost far more to rebuild today, leaving a potential coverage gap.

🏠 Choosing coverage based primarily on price - Focusing only on the lowest premium can lead to higher deductibles, lower limits, or key exclusions, which can create high out-of-pocket costs in the event of an emergency.

🏠 Ignoring flood or earthquake risk - Many homeowners assume these are covered under a standard policy, but these perils typically require separate coverage. Even in moderate- or low-risk areas, events such as heavy rainfall or ground movement can still cause costly damage.

🏠 Overlooking liability coverage limits - If someone is injured on the property or there’s accidental damage to others’ property, insufficient liability limits could leave the homeowner responsible for significant out-of-pocket costs.

A quick review can provide a clearer picture of how your policy would respond in a real claim and whether any limits, exclusions, or gaps need attention. Contact our office to schedule a policy review, and we can go over your terms and make sure your coverage still fits your home today.

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.

DM me the word BRIDGE and I’ll send you a full breakdown guide.👇
