[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well someone has to pay for everyone who got glp1s off label.[/quote]

Yup. Some people have genuine health issues that they are not responsible for. [b]But a 5'6 woman with no diabetes weighting 145 lbs jumping on glp1 is ridiculous and we are all paying for it because she wants to be skinny.[/b] She should pay for it out of her own damn pocket. [/quote]

What on earth are you on about? Anyone who is 5’6” and 145lbs isn’t getting a glp1 without paying “out of her own damn pocket” (and she probably isn’t even getting it then).

This is the real problem— extreme ignorance regarding how the healthcare system works.[/quote]

As someone who was 5'3" and 165lb, I bought my GLP1s with my own money. And, because i am now healthier at 140lb and can exercise again and have lower cholesterol, I probably saved my health insurance money because now I don't need cholesterol meds and have lower risks of major illness that they would cover.

Health costs are super complex, but hospital consolidation, pharmacy approval middlemen who take cuts for formularies, ACA cutbacks are all probably more real version of the problem. But fairly, we are all resentful of how bad our health care system is.  It's atrocious. [/quote]
