Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 3: Cost and Access
Q: How do traditional pharmacy benefit managers contribute to the high cost of GLP-1 drugs?
Traditional PBMs may profit off the price of the drugs through spreads and rebates, increasing costs for consumers without increasing affordability.
Episode 3: Cost and Access
Q: Why may health plans only cover these drugs for people with diabetes?
Many payers believe that there's stronger evidence for health improvement in diabetics using GLP-1s compared to non-diabetics, leading to coverage limitations.
Episode 3: Cost and Access
Q: Why are GLP-1 medications so expensive, and what would it take to make them more affordable?
GLP-1s are expensive due to high consumer demand and the ability for companies to set prices. Future affordability may come from generics and value-based agreements with employers.
Episode 2: How GLP-1 Medications Work
Q: How do GLP-1 medications compare to older weight loss drugs?
GLP-1s activate glucagon pathways that help the body switch to burning fat for energy, promoting effective weight loss.
Episode 2: How GLP-1 Medications Work
Q: What's the mechanism of action behind these GLP-1 drugs?
GLP-1 drugs primarily slow down gastric emptying and stimulate insulin production in response to high blood sugar levels, while also preventing the liver from releasing excess glucose.
