ClearScript Solutions: MedEmpower™ Fuel
Most plan sponsors are fully aware that Ozempic and other Glucagon-like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists are proving to be a game-changer in treating diabetes and obesity. With these conditions affecting millions of people worldwide and rising, the demand for GLP-1s continues to soar. So do the associated costs – a growing concern for many plan sponsors.
Diabetes and pre-diabetes management is expensive and complex partly because people with diabetes often suffer from comorbidities that require continuous follow-up and effective care coordination. While new therapies like GLP-1s address part of the problem, the costs and outcomes for people with diabetes are also highly dependent on personal lifestyle choices. To gain control over these conditions, people often need to change habits they’ve had their entire lives. Some plan sponsors are turning to wellness programs to empower members to take control of their health and mitigate the economic burden of diabetes and pre-diabetes.
