MedImpact launches GLP-1 Benefit 360 to tackle obesity medication costs with capped pricing

MedImpact, the largest independent pharmacy benefits company in the US, has launched two solutions to manage rising GLP-1 medication costs whilst improving patient access: GLP-1 Benefit 360 and GLP-1 Direct Fund. GLP-1 Benefit 360 offers capped pricing for plans and members, integrated lifestyle support through the MedEmpower Fuel mobile app, and access to registered dietitians. The solution addresses the issue that over half of patients discontinue GLP-1 therapy within three months by providing personalised coaching at no additional cost. The GLP-1 Direct Fund allows healthcare payers to contribute set amounts toward direct-to-consumer pricing, offering members lower out-of-pocket costs whilst protecting plans from unpredictable cost increases. Both solutions bypass traditional high-cost pharmacy models to provide predictable pricing and clinical support.
