[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can somebody clarify what's going on with Wegovy and BCBS, if anything? It's open season and the 2024 benefits look the same to me ... [/quote] Nothing has changed with BCBS and Wegovy. It has always required a prior authorization documenting that you meet the criteria--i think either BMI over 30 or BMI over 27 plus hyperlipidemia or high blood pressure etc. It's Ozempic that has changed. When I started getting Ozempic through BCBS in January, there was no prior authorization required. It was covered with no questions asked even though I don't have diabetes or pre-diabetes. At some point in the last couple of months that changed so it now requires a PA and will in 2024, and it won't be approved without a diabetes diagnosis. So folks who didn't meet the criteria for Wegovy have been able to take Ozempic for weight loss without a diabetes diagnosis. That's no longer the case. [/quote]
