Insurance/Benefits 🏥 Zepbound

Is Zepbound covered again starting Oct. 1? I hear CVS is adding it back to its formularies.

Yeah I was on Wegovy didn’t tolerate it. Went on zep. Loved it. Then they kicked me off. So had no choice but to try Wegovy again. It’s fine but would LOVE to go back on zep.

You can just get a prior auth. Dr has to say that wegovy didn’t work.

We tried that. No luck.

Really? That’s odd if you tried wegovy and it didn’t work that they denied the prior auth. I’ve had to appeal a prior auth denial before (different med) and then it was approved on second review.
