- UVM Health to suspend weight loss drug coverage for its employees
UVM Health plans to stop covering weight loss medications for employees starting September 2023, aiming to save $19 million annually. The decision affects GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Zepbound, which are costly out-of-pocket for employees, while coverage for diabetes treatment remains. Employees express concern over financial burden and health impacts.
