GLP-1s coverage conundrum: Real talk with plan leaders and topic experts

Event Date: 3/19/2024

Event Overview

Tuesday, 3/19/2024
11:00 AM CT – 12:00 PM CT (60 minutes)
Vendor Spotlight Host: Vitality Group 

Healthcare costs in the US are mainly driven by chronic conditions such as heart disease, cancer, stroke, and diabetes, many of which are linked to obesity. GLP-1 medications are effective in reducing obesity and are driving market demand, but without addressing behavior risks, their short-term costs increase with questionable long-term ROI.

HPA pharmacy, clinical, and care management leaders are invited to join this executive-level roundtable to discuss how health plans are approaching coverage decisions, connect care management, and implement stop-gap measures. Participants can expect to join a lively discussion where they will learn from experts and peers and explore a new solution not yet introduced to the market.

Learning Objectives: 

  • Learn about the strategies HPA member plans are using to address the risks associated with obesity: How do we optimize the outcomes of GLP-1 medications under well-managed care scenarios?
  • Explore the member engagement gaps in care management programs today and what health plan leaders are doing to effect change: How are we using what we know about our members to motivate behavior change
  • Explore the application of behavioral science in healthcare decision-making and care management: How can it support sustained behavior change, enhance (and sustain) the positive impact of GLP-1s?Evaluate the potential of cutting-edge solutions based on behavioral science to address the challenges of obesity and reduce healthcare costs.
